Course Overview

The software testing methods have evolved remarkably over the last 20-30 years. Today, monkey testing techniques are not efficient as computer programmes have become sophisticated with up to millions of lines of code (LOC). The Software Testing online course by Swayam is developed to introduce you to various software testing methods.

The Software Testing certification programme discusses numerous testing techniques such as mutation and integration testing, usable for white box and black-box test case design. During the course, you will study multiple black-box testing techniques, including equivalence partitioning, boundary testing, combinatorial testing, cause-effect graph, special value testing, robustness testing, decision table, and more.

You will also explore different white box testing techniques in Software Testing online training. These include coverage-based testing methods, path coverage, data flow coverage, decision coverage, Modified Condition/Decision Coverage (MC/DC), etc. This course uses high-quality video lectures, assignments, practical examples and quizzes to impart in-depth knowledge of testing methods.
