Objectives

The purpose of the course:

More and more things in life are happening using information technology. Thus, the amount of software only increases, but how is the quality of the software guaranteed? Testing is one of the cornerstones of successful application development, and every application developer should at least understand the basic principles of testing. There is also a demand for testing specialists in the current job market!

In this course, we will review the basic principles and theory of software testing. We are also familiar with unit and end-to-end testing.

Course competence:
After completing the course, you will be able to implement unit and end-to-end testing with web technologies. You understand the differences between manual and automation testing. You will also understand the levels, methods and types of testing, and how testing is performed at different stages of software development.

Content

In this course you will get acquainted with the basic principles and theory of software testing. We go through software testing from a technological point of view, utilizing various unit and end-to-end testing tools.

Learning materials and recommended literature

Material written by the teacher can be found at Moodle.

Teaching methods

- Lectures
- Contact lessons
- Exercises
- Final assignment
- Exam

Exam dates and retake possibilities

The exam is held at the end of the course. Renewal opportunities will be announced at the end of the course.

Alternative completion methods

You have the right to apply for recognition of your studies if you have prior learning (e.g. university studies completed elsewhere) that can be accredited towards the degree you are currently completing.

The recognition of prior learning is possible in three primary ways: accreditation (replacement or inclusion), recognition of informal learning and studification. More precise info: JAMK Degree Regulations, section 17.
