STEP UP Program

The pace of change in software development methodologies and techniques continues to increase. Agile development, continuous integration and continuous deployment, and a heightened focus on developing secure software, are among the many advances being put into practice. These advances in software development necessitate accompanying advances in software testing.

The Two-Day STEP-UP Testing program is designed for experienced software testing personnel who seek to advance and improve their software testing skills in order to support the software development efforts that incorporate the new development technologies. Topics in this program will vary, but may include testing in the agile development environment, return on investment of systems testing, tester participation in requirements development and testing, advances in personnel organization and management, and others.
