Programming is a powerful skill that allows test engineers to create practical, reusable scripts. Using scripts, a tester can create tests that run exactly the same way each time, and test applications via different interfaces such as the command line and API.

This class will introduce the fundamentals of using the Windows and Unix command line interfaces, then discuss how multiple commands can be grouped together into batch files and shell scripts. Programming concepts such as using variables and control flow structures will be introduced then used during hands-on exercises. Students will use full-featured scripting languages such as Perl and VBScript to create scripts for more complex tasks. This class serves as a strong foundation for learning the scripting languages used in commercial test automation tools.

Security issues are among the highest concerns to many organizations. Despite this fact, security testing is often the least understood and least defined task. Security testing is a broad effort that requires a domain of expertise beyond traditional software testing.

This two-day course with hands-on exercises that teaches you security issues; outlines how software-testing roles fit in the big picture; and gives you effective techniques that help you seek out application security vulnerabilities. The course focuses on security-related testing as it is applied to testing Web sites, Web applications, and software applications. This course is ideal for software testing professionals who are facing the new challenges and responsibilities of determining the scope of security testing to be done at the application level; then having to construct the plan and carry out the testing.

This two-day course focuses on developing a strategic approach to test project management, effective communication, bug-database management, resource planning, and successful test execution, as well as some of the "soft" skills needed to lead and manage a team. Implementation and use of test management tools will also be covered. Application of these concepts will be demonstrated in class exercises. Learn to maximize test productivity while minimizing quality risks and stress.

This one-day course focuses on developing efficient and effective test project documentation to maximize productivity and give visibility into the testing project. Many testers and test leads dread the increased demand for documenting their work. This course can help you accomplish your writing and planning tasks in a more methodical and easier way. Designed to quickly get you started using templates, previous project material, tables, and other tools, this intensive training will have you creating relevant and readable deliverables in no time. We focus on test cases, test plans, as well as status reports, metrics and meeting minutes.

This two-day course is designed to give test automation professionals real solutions to common implementation problems from automation in the field, which is very different than automation in theory. LogiGear has developed this course through our own experiences in implementing automation solutions or salvaging failing automation programs. Our instructors are also our test automation consultants. They will walk you through the common challenges and problems our clients experienced and show you ways to avoid them through traditional test automation scripting to more esoteric action word, or keyword-driven automation solutions. LogiGear will use case studies to help clarify and enforce key automation concepts.

This 2-day hands-on course offers an intensive workshop in a wide variety of testing methods and test case development strategies. This course is designed for those who already have a solid understanding of software quality and testing.

Many testers and test leads dread the demand for documenting their work even as more groups move to use test management tools. Also, for better efficiency and test coverage we must be armed with a wider variety of methodologies and approaches than only requirements-based testing.

This course provides thorough hands-on examples, practical, state-of-the art methods for effective software testing and test communication through the complete software development lifecycle. It also includes best practices for documenting test cases for Automation.

This is a fast-paced two-day course focusing on testing issues that are specific to Browser-based or Web applications. It is intended for test engineers who want to enhance their skills in testing software systems that consist of both client-side and server-side components. The course seeks to develop your knowledge in test planning and testing strategies relevant to client-server applications, especially those that take advantage of the Web and component-based technologies. The knowledge learned can be applied immediately to the testing of your products.

"Effective Performance Test Planning and Implementation" is a one-day course that will teach you how to plan for and implement a successful, cost effective performance testing program. It’s ideal for professionals taking on new responsibilities of determining the scope of performance testing, selecting the right tools that fit the needs and the budget, acquiring the required resources to implement the program, designing and constructing useful tests to reveal the findings that support business and engineering decisions, and educating the rest of the organization about performance testing. The course layout walks you through the planning process step-by-step. Concepts are applied to a sample project.

This two-day hands-on course is designed to give test engineers useful techniques and applications of technologies that enable them to test earlier, with better focus, and more astutely. The techniques and knowledge presented in this class will help test teams get more testing done, and most importantly, get the right testing done at the right time. These techniques also provide the tools for testing on Agile or RUP development projects.

The goal of this class is to develop strategies and skills for analyzing and running unit and integration tests, from the perspective of learning what tests to take on, what tests a developer ought to be running, and some tools for testers to accomplish these tests. Many of the same techniques can be applied to API and interoperability testing. They are particularly useful for testing on newer, faster development projects using eXtreme, Agile, Test-First, Test Driven or UML/Use Case SDLCs. The goal is to demystify early testing and look for ways to maximize your testing effort. Test teams can also use alternative test design methodologies other than the requirements-based testing approach. We will introduce test case design using gray-box and action-based/keyword-driven testing, and other approaches. You will be equipped with new skills that enable you to select and perform the most effective testing practices to expose software errors, improve coverage and reduce execution time.
