Requirements
No programming experience needed. Basic knowledge of what is software is enough to start the course. We will learn everything during the course
Description
This course is designed to give you a complete and practical understanding of manual software testing. Whether you are just starting your career in software testing or looking to strengthen your knowledge as a QA Engineer, this course will provide you with the essential skills needed to confidently test real-world applications.We will begin by exploring the basics of software testing, why it is important, and how testing fits into the software development life cycle (SDLC). From there, we will move step by step through the Software Testing Life Cycle (STLC), covering requirement analysis, test planning, test case design, test execution, defect reporting, and closure.The course also dives into testing levels such as unit testing, integration testing, system testing, and user acceptance testing. You will learn both functional testing types (smoke, sanity, regression, retesting, exploratory, and ad-hoc) and non-functional testing types (performance, load and stress, usability, compatibility, localization, security, and accessibility).We will also cover test design techniques like equivalence partitioning, boundary value analysis, decision tables, state transition testing, error guessing, and use case testing. These methods will help you design better test cases, reduce redundancy, and increase coverage.By the end of this course, you will not only understand the theory but also know how to apply manual testing in practical scenarios. This course is beginner-friendly, yet detailed enough for aspiring testers, QA engineers, or developers who want to improve the quality of their software.
