Certification: Software Quality Engineer Certification CSQE

ASQ (American Society for Quality) offers Software Quality Engineer Certification - CSQE.
The requirements for passing examination seems pretty high - the highest from all the certifications I have written about already. You must have eight years of on-the-job experience in one or more of the areas of the Certified Software Quality Engineer Body of Knowledge. Part of the eight-year experience requirement will be waived depending on your completed a degree from a college or university. For example - Bachelor's degree–four years waived.
The Software Quality Engineer examination is a one-part, 160-question, four-hour exam and is offered in English only.
The ASQ also offers some resources for preparation, the best part I liked - sample exam online to check yourself. Myself i was SHOCKED. English is not my native language, i have no problems with reading material, but the exam questions does not seem very easy and i really doubt if I could pass it now... For exam taking you may apply online.
$360.00 is the fee for Certified Software Quality Engineer exam.
The most complicated thing is that this exam is not only for software testing but, a person, as mentioned above the high requirements for passing the exam, should have wider understanding of software developing process and be quality engineer. Designed for those who have a comprehensive understanding of software quality development and implementation; have a thorough understanding of software inspection and testing, verification, and validation; and can implement software development and maintenance processes and methods.

Retrofitting testing - what is it?

It is nice to meet new terms and keywords relating testing. This morning I got a question how I am planning to do 'regression as part of Code Retrofitting testing'.   Have never heard of retrofitting testing before, so did some googling. The best explanation I found was on blog  http://blog.intrepidtesting.com/retrofit-vs-retest-vs-regression-testing/    article " Retrofit vs Retest vs Regression Testing " : Retrofit testing  is carried to to test that a change in functionality is correctly implemented for existing entities. Retrofit testing is more commonly carried out when you have an incremental project, or change requests. If the time available to test is tight, retesting and retrofit testing usually takes a higher priority over regression testing Colleague's comment while trying to help me: " if I googled it correctly then they expect you to perform regression for legacy system where your changes were introduced. In this way I would ...
