| Course Length - 2 Days | | | | Course Description This cutting-edge two-day seminar provides practical methods for evaluating your current test process and planning improvements. It is designed to provide an introduction to the Testing Maturity Model (TMMSM) and its application. TMMSM is one of the most exciting and useful test process improvement tools to come along in the last decade. It can help generate significant changes in an organization's test process. TMMSM was developed in 1996 by Dr. Ilene Burnstein from the Illinois Institute of Technology, but has not received its deserved recognition until recently. The Capability Maturity Model for Software (SW-CMM) is already an excellent software development tool, and many people have worked to develop a companion test tool. TMMSM is that tool. It can either be used in conjunction with SW-CMM, CMMI, ISO 9001 or ISO/IEC 12207 or as a stand-alone tool. If your organization is searching for a tool to help improve their test process, or a tool to use as a benchmark for your test process assessment, then you don't want to miss this workshop. | | | | | You Will: - Expand your knowledge of testing maturity models
- Discover the characteristics of the Testing Maturity Model
- Understand how to assess your current testing maturity
- Gain knowledge of how to utilize TMMSM .
- Learn techniques for planning and managing test process improvement

This workshop is designed as an organizational overview of Testing Maturity Model (TMMSM ), how to use it as a benchmark during test process assessment, and its benefits. It is valuable for all personnel involved in the development or maintenance of IT-based systems, either as a practitioner or a manager. This includes staff with dedicated or mixed roles encompassing support, development, testing, configuration management, quality assurance, and the user/client. This course would greatly benefit anyone who is concerned with assessing and maturing the test process. An understanding of the basic software development process would be helpful. | | | | | | Format This course is 2 days of lecture and individual and group workshops presented in an interactive format.
