Module 1: Software Testing Introduction and Its Importance

• What is testing?
• Importance of testing
• Responsibilities associated with a Tester
• Software Testing Principles
• Manual Testing vs. Automation Testing.
• What is Quality?

Module 2: Software Development Life Cycle                                                        
A system development life cycle or SDLC is essentially a project management model. It defines different stages that are necessary to bring a project from its initial idea or conception all the way to deployment and later maintenance.
1. SDLC Phases

• Requirements Phase.
• Analysis Phase.
• Design phase.
• Coding Phase.
• Testing phase.
• Delivery and Maintenance Phase.

2. SDLC Models

• Waterfall Model.
• V Model
• Agile Model.
• Prototype Model.
• Spiral Model.

Module 3: Software Testing Methodologies                                                       
Software testing methodologies are the various strategies or approaches used to test an application to ensure it behaves and looks as expected.

• White Box Testing.
• Black Box Testing.
• Grey Box Testing.

​Module 4: Test Case Design Techniques                                                                
Design test cases in such a way that we get the maximum coverage using an optimal set of Test cases. Focus on highlighting the various Methods and Techniques in designing test cases for both Black Box Testing and White Box testing.
Static Techniques:

• Reviews
• Walkthroughs
• Inspection

Dynamic Techniques:
 Structural Techniques

• Statement Coverage Testing
• Branch Coverage Testing
• Path Coverage Testing
• Conditional Coverage Testing

Experienced Based Techniques:

• Decision Table
• State Transition Technique

Module 5: Levels of Testing                                                                                        
Testing levels are the procedure for finding the missing areas and avoiding overlapping and repetition between the development life cycle stages.
1. Functional Testing

• Unit Testing
• Integration Testing
• System Testing
• User Acceptance Testing.
• Sanity/Smoke Testing.
• Regression Test.
• Retest.

2. Non-Functional Testing

• Performance Testing.
• Compatibility Testing.
• Security Testing.
• Installation Testing.
• Adhoc Testing.
• Risk Based Testing.
• Compliance Testing.

Module 6: Software Testing Life Cycle                                                                     
Software Testing Life Cycle (STLC) is a sequence of different activities performed during the software testing process.
1. Requirements Analysis/Design
