TMMI helps you determine what needs to be addressed and corrected within your testing process. A structured test method, such as TMap Next or ISTQB, helps you determine how to implement the foregoing. During this course you will also learn the relationship between TMMi and ISTQB / TMap Next, ans some good ISTQB / TMap Next pratices will be handed to achieve TMMi level 5.
After this training:
- You know the different definitions of structured testing and test their relationship with maturity.
- You know the need to improve the testing process, the main models and relationships with software process improvement;
- You know the different levels of TMMi model;
- You know the relationship of TMMi with ISTQB / TMap Next and specific ISTQB / TMap testing practices to implement TMMi process areas;
- You improve the role and importance of metrics in test process improvement and within TMMi;
- You perform formal and informal TMMi assessments.
How excellent is your test process?
Software Process Improvement (SPI) is one of the main issues in the software industry. Although as much as 30% to 40% of the total project budget is spent on software testing, the attention to structured testing within the SPI models is limited. An answer to this shortcoming is the development of specific models for test process improvement. This course focuses particularly on the Test Maturity Model Integration (TMMi). This model is complementary to the Capability Maturity Model (CMM) and CMMI.
The Test Maturity Model Integration (TMMi) helps organizations to determine the status of the testing process and setting priorities for improvements. The TMMi defines five distinct levels of maturity. At each level, except for level 1, a number of process areas are identified where the primary focus of test improvement actions should be addressed. Each process area supports the implementation of clear objectives supported by various so-called key practices.
This training is designed to let you understand what the TMMi model is in theory and practice and how you can apply the model in your organization.
Structure of this training
The training lasts two days. You will learn about the Test Maturity Model Integration (TMMi) in theory and practice. The testing process for your organization is positioned within the TMMi. The course then provides practical skills and tools for improving your test process based upon TMMi. Discussions and exercises play an important role in this course.
