Course Overview
Hi everyone. This course is about preparing for an interview for a Software Tester, also known as a QA. In most interviews there are two parts, testing your soft skills and technical knowledge, this course is about the second part, the technical part.
The course will be useful for testers:
1. Beginners in software testing, to deepen knowledge of software testing theory
2. Experienced software testers who want to recall the basic knowledge of software testing theory
The main task of the course is to deepen your knowledge of software theory. To help you answer questions clearly and confidently at the interview, we did three things, each answer to the question includes
1. Answer from official literature (standards, certifications, other documents)
2. Answer based on analyzed articles on the Internet (we call it "Human Language")
3. A real-life example to help you understand complex theoretical concepts
The course answers the following questions, which are divided into sections:
