Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences

The goal of the course is to show methods of software testing. Course contains: - Analysis of requirement specification and design of test cases based on the analysis result. - Synthesis of test cases to test set. - Planning of testing during all phases of software development cycle and test plan creation. - Methods of testing and their usage in test case synthesis. - Evaluation of test results and estimate of software quality based on test results.

Summary

Subject is focused on practical methods used for software systems verification and validation. Quality assessment is built into the process, in all activities, involving all participants, using objective measurements and criteria, and not treated as an afterthought or a separate activity performed by a separate group.

Way of continuous check of knowledge in the course of semester

Each student has to work out project, which is separated to three parts. Parts have to be submitted during semester. Whole project contains manual test scripts, automatized functional test scripts, performance test scripts and test documentation. Project have to be evaluate at least by 20 points from 40, final exam have to be evaluate at least by 30 points from 60.
