Overview
The ISTQB® Certified Tester – Model-Based Tester (CT-MBT) certification enhances your testing skills by applying model-based approaches to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the test process. It complements traditional test design methods through structured modeling techniques for test generation, execution, and analysis.
Objectives
By the end of this course, leaner will be able to:
-
Understand the objectives, benefits, and principles of model-based testing (MBT)
-
Create and manage MBT models using appropriate modeling languages
-
Apply MBT test selection criteria effectively
-
Integrate MBT into existing software development and testing lifecycles
-
Implement, execute, and monitor model-based test activities
-
Evaluate and manage MBT deployments for continuous improvement
Prerequisites
- Must hold the ISTQB Certified Tester Foundation Level certification.
- Basic understanding of software testing concepts is expected.
