ISTQB Foundation Agile Tester Extension FAQ

 20 Aug 2014 

On Thursday 7th of August 2014 we conducted a webinar in which we provided details of the newly launched ISTQB Foundation Agile Tester Extension course and examination. We used some of the questions we were asked during the webinar to build a list of  Frequently Asked Questions about this course.

We’ve also included a recording of the webinar below, and have made the presentation slides available for download.

In fact, many of these cities already have scheduled dates, commencing September 2014. If your city isn’t currently scheduled, please Contact Us as we can schedule a course earlier based on demand.

Similarly, if you’re located in a city not listed above, such as Hobart, Darwin or Christchurch, we can certainly come to you if we can generate sufficient demand for a publicly scheduled course, or if you would like to book in-house training for your team. So let us know!

A: Testing experience is certainly beneficial for this course, however the only requirement is that you have passed ISTQB Foundation Certificate examination.

Q: Do we sit the exam on the final day of the course?

 

 

 

A: Not for this course. Similar to our ISTQB Advanced courses, we have designed this course in such a way that you get two full days of training to provide you with a solid understanding of the course materials. After completing the course, you can then book your exam, sitting it at a time when you feel fully prepared.
