Hi Vijay,

Can you please provide previous year question papers. As it will be easy to prepare for those who r taking the exams.

Thanks

#22 pappu on 03.06.08 at 12:07 am

Hi Raj n Shilpa,
U both have asked the same question. Here is the answer. CSTE certification for experienced people n ISTQB for inexperienced people. ISTQB is foundation level exam for people who dont have experience. If you have experience go for CSTE.

#23 Jitendra Nath on 03.23.08 at 3:19 pm

@ Pappu

Its not tat CSTE certification is for experienced ppl & ISTQB is for inexperienced ppl. There r many experienced ppl who r still unable to clear the ISTQB foundation level. It all depends on the representing or reproducing levels of his/her knowledge and especially the hardwork tat the individual does for the exam preparation.

I request all the bloggers to provide perfect guidance or help in this type of discussions. Remember tat the information tat we pass to others helps them to shape their CAREER. So, no flaw statements pls.

#35 Pankaj Munjal on 02.11.09 at 3:55 pm

Dear Ajay,

Answer to your questions:

Slice Based Testing:
In some systems, you can control the grain of switching between tasks or processes. The size of the time quantum that you choose can make race bugs, time-outs, interrupt-related problems, and other time-related problems more or less likely. Of course, coverage is an difficult problem here because you aren’t just varying time-slice settings through every possible value. You also have to decide which tests to run under each setting. Given a planned set of test cases per setting, the coverage measure looks at the number of settings you’ve covered.

Domain testing:

Domain testing can be described as functional testing where the test bed and test cases are prepared based on the business/functional flow of the application.

i have done mca and now interested in software testing course ,which certifcation course is better for me and what is the course fee ?And also want to know that mca is suitable for doing this course or should only take development field thanks

#43 Govardhan Reddy M on 12.04.09 at 5:13 am

Dear Neha (#42),
Why to waste fresher period for certifications?
Just hunt a job as a fresher, Then you can go ahead with any number of certifications.

What to do with certifications – If no job in hand?
Just think. Because its not that much easy to get a job once you complete your fresher period, Though you’ve many certifications in hand. Simple.

Good luck.

Hi,
Nice information about software testing certifications.
Thanks for Sharing.

#51 Jamie Mitchell on 01.16.11 at 5:32 pm

What is missing from the body of this site are the ISTQB (International Software Testing Qualifications Board) certifications. Since ISTQB has the largest number of testers certified in the world, this is quite an oversight. The following are their certifications:

CTFL (Certified tester foundation level)
CTAL (Certified tester advanced level)

The latter one is actually split into 3 parts:

ATM (Advanced test manager)
ATA (Advanced test analyst)
ATTA (Advanced technical test analyst)

More information can be found at ISTQB.org

#53 Tester on 06.02.11 at 6:16 am

Hi Deepa I think you should do course “CSQE- Certified Software Quality Engineer” which is best and helpful for you more in career……..
