Software put to the test in Milton Keynes

A one-day course, Software Testing Essentials For Developers, organised by Mangates, is due to be held in Milton Keynes in mid-December.

This is an introduction to the fundamentals of software testing, which explains both its significance and the processes involved. In particular, it addresses locating it within the total Development Life Cycle and focusing on how organisational efficiency and effectiveness can be improved.

The course imparts a clear understanding of the basic principles that underpin testing and seeks to demystify the terminology. There is also a useful overview of the various tools and the techniques employed, including the management of the entire technical process.

Delivered over three sessions, it covers such key topics as Equivalence Partitioning Boundary Value Analysis, decision tables, coverage measures, identifying bugs, and the application of S-Curves.

This subject area is of considerable commercial importance and should be of interest not only to software developers, but also to project managers and ordinary users.

The course fees start at £857.60 with refunds available up to seven days prior to the event. Brochure printing can be most effective when it comes to presenting and publicising education and training programmes like this one.

Software Testing Essentials for Developers, 1 Day Training will take place between 9:00 am and 5:00 pm on Monday, December 14 at Regus, Midsummer Court, Milton Keynes.
