Fundamentals of Software Quality Assurance and Testing

This introductory course establishes the core principles and practices of Software Quality Assurance (SQA) and Testing. It is designed to provide participants with a foundational understanding of how quality is built into the software development lifecycle, rather than just being tested in at the end. The course covers key concepts such as quality planning, verification, validation, and various testing methodologies, from unit testing to system integration testing. Attendees will learn the essential terminology, standards, and techniques needed to effectively contribute to and manage quality throughout the entire software development process, whether using traditional or Agile methodologies.
