Time from time while searching in the web I find interesting stuff, relating testing. Mostly grammar small bugs. Decided to share with you. Today's picture was found in internet bank system, swedbank. Tried to edit my direct debit payment, and did not get the right button name :)

everyone has been talking about crisis, The Crisis, already more than a year. so, what is the crisis impact for software testing and testers? "software consulting firm Ovum claims that the worldwide software testing services market is projected to reach 56 billion dollars by 2013, despite the global economic crisis" . In my background, all IT sector has less sofware projects. Companies save money first of all cutting IT expenses. IT software companies may start saving with fewer testers. One person commented: "a client does want to buy testing services. He will test the product himself". Developers and coders are more valuable - they code and then test the product. And the tester remains as a luxury for better times. When considering among testers, company would necessarily cut manual testers first over technical testers. How do you feel crisis as a tester?

My late impressions on ‚ 1 0th Annual Conference for Testing Professionals "TEST MORE FOR LESS". One day conference, starting early in the morning. Had a chance to see Riga old town in the evening. It was not first time taking attending the conference – during studies at the UNI, we have prepared once. This was the first time I attended a testing related event. So many testers in one place :) The organisers of the conference really worked hard. Our company group enjoyed everything – the presentations in English, the time management, coffy breaks and tasty luch. Now, the program and all conference material are available at is.lv website. The main impression – automation and agile rules. Last year we also switched from waterfall to RUP iteration. and starting more serious automated testing.. What is the drawback of a conference, that presentations are short. (If you are not interested or do not understand Latvian, of course, happy it is only 20-30 minutes) When you are really ...

10th Annual Conference for Software Testing professionals will take place in Riga, Latvia (University of Latvia), on June 5, 2009. There will be a chance to take ISTQB Advanced level exam. Anyone from LT interested?

While reading the last issue of Testing experience, found a short message: 'Industry Leaders Announce New Software Quality Testing Certification'. QAMP® - Quality Assurance Management Professional. It sets high standards - to a broad theoretical knowledge – which needs to be demonstrated by 3 successfully passed certification examinations – it attests the practical knowledge and project experience of the certified employee. Theoretical and practical knowledge both have to be updated annually. Upon completion of all three certificates and proof of the two year practical experience, the participant will be certified as iSQI Quality Assurance Management Professional (QAMP). In case the applicant is not able to submit evidence of practical experience (e.g. graduates) the applicant will receive the status iSQI Quality Assurance Management Professional (QAMP) - Bachelor. Attached the certification schema, not easy to understand. I suggest visiting their site, www.qamp.org. My note, ...

Good title of the post. If you have questions about advanced ISTQB certification in Lithuania, the only answer is - not possible (only foundation level). For the moment, there is no testing board in Lithuania, so decided to write where you may take the tests for advanced certification. Polish Testing Board (www.sjsi.org)works over 6 years. There would be no problem (i guess) to take the exam. The website is really full of information, even with the statistics - pass and fail ratio. Latvia Testing Board is a few times younger. And for now they have accreditation only for Foundation Level. You may read more on their web site. (Updated post after the comment, thanks to Rimvydas)

Willing to make a break from certification questions. However that is not easy. Found another topic for reading - online certification . There are two certifications, available online: Software Testing Fundamentals and Testing Expert Certification . Tried to do the fundamentals test. Scored 65percent, and did not reach the required 70. After taking test I will not able to get another ticket for next 3 months. What I did not like about the site - could not find the material for exam questions. Do not believe in opinion, that every tester should know the terms, used in the test. And there were some, that I saw first time. So, you may try to do the exam. Maybe will be succesful and print out your certificate. Although I believe there should be better online certification sites for testers :)

While studying for ISEB foundation in software testing, googled a lot how to study :) Although did not find tips for the exam questions, some posts on preparation were very useful. Most of all liked this one . (Keyword for browsing 'how to prepare for ISEB foundation) There are also sample exam papers, check this blog . (Keyword for browsing: sample ISEB foundation) Suggested steps for studying: 1. Read the syllabus; 2. Read the book ; 3. Do sample exam papers; 4. Review the book and syllabus again.

the Eurostar 2008 is over, the next year theme is 'Testing Challenge'. There are some interviews about testing challenge for the year 2009 in youtube. the quality is really poor, this one i liked the most:

sharing my news with you. yesterday, at prometrics center passed ISEB Foundation Certificate in Software Testing, 85 percent. Finally! Practising sample exams really helps. Will write more about preparation later.

just an idea for reading - microsoft msdn site for testers: http://msdn.microsoft.com/lt-lt/testing/default(en-us).aspx

One of the first companies, offering testing services, has opened its website www.testuotojai.lt. Congratulations! "Testuotojai" means ‘the testers’ in Lithuanian language. The same as my blog's address - "testavimas" is for testing. As they wrote, team has been working as software testers and now trying to do this as independent people, not a part of any IT company. The services description seems quite narrow for me, but ok, as it is the beginning. The number of testers, together with the ads looking for software testing or QA specialists, has been really increasing in the last years. So, the birth of a company like this is a really natural development of software testing market in Lithuania.
