Re: Software Testing certificate (ISTQB)

Hello,

the istqb was officially founded as an international testing qualifications board in edinburgh in november 2002. The istqb is responsible for the "istqb certified tester", which is an international qualification scheme and the qualifications in the scheme are based on a syllabus.

There is an examination covering the contents of the syllabus. After the examination, each successful participant receives the “istqb-certified-tester” certificate. There r 2 levels foundation and advanced. For the advance level one has to pass the foundation level n should have 24 months of testing experience. The foundation level exam consists of approximately 35 to 40 multiple choice questions.

They are weighted according to difficulty (1 to 3 points per question). An exam amounts to approximately 70 points total, of which more than 60% must be attained in order to pass.

The exam is a closed book exam. You have 90 minutes to finish.

ISTQB is the board of examination all the countries are agreeing.
ISEB is for UK countries.

Smile Re: Software Testing certificate (ISTQB)

Hey,

you will just need to logon to ISTQB site and fill the online exam form ,

they will provide you a registration id. just note down the id, and check the mails , which you would have given while filling the exam form.


In mail , they will send you the details of Fee-structure and postal address to send the D.D.



Good luck Dost
