Explore the integration of software testing with different development models in this comprehensive course series. Begin this course by investigating incremental and sequential models to gain insights into tailoring testing approaches to specific development methodologies and enhance collaboration between developers and testers. Then you will focus on test-driven, acceptance test-driven, and behavior-driven development. Next, you will dive into the intersection of software testing and DevOps to examine how testing practices seamlessly integrate into continuous integration, continuous deployment, and a shift-left approach. You will gain practical knowledge on incorporating testing into the development pipeline, ensuring quality is maintained throughout the software development life cycle. Finally, you will discover how software testing retrospectives and continuous improvement foster a culture of learning and refinement within the testing process for ongoing excellence. This course helps prepare learners for the ISTQB(r) Certified Tester Foundation Level 4.0 (CTFL) exam.
