ASTQB Virtual Certified Mobile Tester

The Virtual Mobile Tester Foundation course, created by Rex Black, President of RBCS, Inc. (www.rbcs-us.com), past President of the International Software Testing Qualifications Board (www.istqb.org), past President of the American Software Testing Qualifications Board (www.astqb.org), Chair of the ISTQB Agile Tester Working Group, and a reviewer of the ASTQB Mobile Tester Syllabus, is ideal for testers and test teams preparing for certification. 

This hands-on course provides testers and test managers with an understanding of the fundamentals of testing on mobile projects.

The objectives of the course are as follows:

• Identify and mitigate the challenges that face a mobile application tester.
• Plan, design and implement appropriate test cases for mobile applications.
• Work with other team members to identify and assess risks and to implement a testing solution to help mitigate those risks.
• Identify the applicable quality characteristics for a mobile application and identify an appropriate testing approach to address those characteristics.
• Participate in tool analysis and selection to select the most appropriate tools for conducting mobile application testing.
• Identify areas for non-functional testing and prepare appropriate tests for those areas.
• Understand the differences between the various mobile application types and select appropriate tools, techniques and approaches to test those applications.
• Effectively employ simulators, emulators and the cloud for testing.
• Participate in planning for the future, including proper tool selection and building for maintainability.
