Summary

The course deals with software testing and quality assurance throughout the software development lifecycle. Students will learn about the various levels of testing and techniques that are used in these levels, the method of evaluating software quality and testing themselves. An integral part is also integrating these activities into the testing process, which is part of the entire software development lifecycle. In addition, students will learn about the process of ensuring software quality. This discipline is very closely linked and intensive use of software testing. The course will focus on the process of quality assurance and its integration into the software development lifecycle, verification and validation.
