SOFTWARE TESTING INTERNSHIP TRAINING –
SOFTWARE TESTER COURSE – 6 MONTHS
Work on 5 Testing Projects covering Manual and Automation Testing
Firstly, the key objective of this Software Tester Course is to learn both Manual Testing and Automation Testing from a project perspective while using a job oriented workshop approach. This would effectively help those aspiring to break into IT / Software Testing. Most importantly, Testing Trainees would experience 3 Manual Testing Projects, followed by 1 Agile Testing Project and 1 Test Automation Project. Furthermore, learn numerous Test Automation Skills from a Project perspective. Subsequently put the Testing essentials into practice through hands-on Manual Testing and Automation Testing Projects. Finally, we will help you with CV & Interviews preparation.
Secondly, our Software Tester Course (aka Software Testing Internship Training) provides practical Manual and Automation Testing project experience, that is highly desired by any potential IT employers. Our formal and professional Software Tester Training serves as a passport strategy for our Testing Trainees to approach IT companies with vast hands-on experience. Likewise, it is relatively easier for an IT company to hire you as they could save training costs and effort.
Thirdly, this is an intense Software Testing Training Course, conducted to offer practical knowledge in Software Testing, lasting for 6 months. Software Testing theoretical knowledge would be backed up by practical experience, hence called as Testing Internship Training. Since this internship training course is academic in nature, ‘interns’ are the ‘students’ and they would not receive any financial benefits. Also, they would not be an employee of Testing eMentor by participating in this internship training.
