ISTQB® Certified Tester
In the ISTQB® Certified Tester program, the Foundation Level serves as the starting point for all testers and as the shared foundation for every advanced specialization.
Within the “Core” stream, the Advanced and Expert Levels build on the Foundation Level and develop essential skills at progressively deeper levels and supporting testers in any software domain or project environment.
The “Specialist” stream comprises three specializations that support testers across a broad range of testing situations:
- Technologies & Approaches
- Quality Characteristics & Test Levels
- Testing in Particular Domains
Artificial Intelligence
AI is changing software development and opening up new possibilities in software testing. In our training courses, you’ll learn how to apply AI - especially machine learning - effectively in software testing and quality assurance: for optimized test processes, precise test cases, realistic test data, efficient automation scripts, and for finding hard-to-detect edge cases.
You will work with LLM-based tools such as ChatGPT, Gemini, or Claude and gain in-depth knowledge of machine learning and generative AI - for effective testing with and of AI systems.
Our ISTQB®-accredited training modules and supplementary practical workshops impart skills that will future-proof your testing strategies and comprehensively and sustainably strengthen your qualifications in the growing field of “AI in software testing.”
Agile Testing & Agile Development
Agile works best when both the project environment and the mindset are aligned. Our training courses help you uncover untapped potential in your testing practices and get the most out of agile methods within your specific project context.
Test Management & QM
Exceptional quality requires among other things, a highly skilled and well equipped management. Here you will find in depth knowledge for professional test management, practical methods for analysing and improving test processes, and guidance on meeting regulations and legal requirements such as ISO certifications or accessibility standards.
You will also find practical approaches for improving product quality and essential soft skills, including communication, conflict resolution, and leadership.
Test Specialist
For certain specialized areas of testing, specific expertise is essential - expertise we have gained through thousands of testing projects and now make available to you in a carefully curated and high quality format. In this category, you'll find advanced and complementary topics and training formats drawn from various fields, going beyond the ISTQB® testing standard or the IREB® standard for requirements engineering.
Examples include courses on testing scenarios with specific requirements such as accessibility testing, industry focused topics, connections to other standards, and writing test specifications.
IT-Security
Strong security starts on day one. Whether you want to pursue established certifications or build practical skills in hands on workshops with our Security Unit, our courses raise your team’s security awareness and help you embed security thinking directly into your test management. You’ll learn how to uncover and close vulnerabilities - and how to make your software more resilient to attacks.
The methods and strategies you acquire will enable your entire IT team to integrate security throughout your processes and across the entire project lifecycle.
Requirements Engineering
This section focuses on the precise elicitation, documentation, and management of requirements - including alignment with the established Certified Professional for Requirements Engineering (IREB®) standard.
It also shows how to bridge the gap between requirements and test management, because clear, well-defined requirements are essential for high-quality software and form the foundation for systematic testing.
Robot Framework
Discover how Robot Framework can boost your testing projects!
Robot Framework is a powerful open source automation framework with a clear, readable syntax and extensive options for customization and use. In our Robot Framework Certified Professional (RFCP) certification course and in workshops tailored to your requirements, you’ll learn how to work with the wide range of libraries that support diverse testing requirements - from web applications and APIs to systems with custom interfaces.
This enables seamless collaboration between development and testing - and within your teams - from day one. You’ll make the most of Robot Framework’s human readable language and the transparency it provides through detailed logs and reports.
Test Bench
With our TestBench training, you’ll quickly and effectively enter the world of professional testing - from strong foundational skills to advanced real world scenarios. You’ll learn how to handle test planning, test specification, manual and automated testing, and complete test management with TestBench.)
For individual needs, we offer tailored workshops and targeted coaching. Deep dives into topics such as variant management, test automation integration, reporting, or data migration help you unlock the full potential of TestBench and measurably improve your testing processes.
