The Art & Science of Testing Business Software

Modern business operations demand high quality application software. But many business clients regard testing as a “necessary evil” because it is expensive, time consuming, resource intensive, disruptive to the business and, all too often, not very effective.

​The Art & Science of Testing Business Software is designed to address these problems by focusing on the “functional” testing techniques that most often involve and benefit business clients. Blending practical theory, proven methods and leading-edge collaborative practices, it examines the role of the Business Analyst as a testing facilitator between their business partners and IT.
 
This workshop stresses business client collaboration, agile planning, effective test case design and proven methods as the cornerstones to a solid testing process. Short, focused exercises give participants the opportunity to practice these important testing techniques.
