Professional Profile for Testing

Developments in IT, be it Industry 4.0, the ‘Internet of Things’ (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI) or autonomous driving, increase the interaction of interrelated software-based systems and thus the complexity of their behavioral possibilities. Predicting quality as the adequacy and overall performance of system properties is becoming increasingly difficult. However, early requirements review and testing remain the most appropriate approaches to risk and quality assessment and must be carried out efficiently and effectively, i.e., professionally.

…and suitable organizations to work together with IT development in efficient processes for the quality of the product. This concerns not only the training and specialization of professional testers, but also the integration of test knowledge into other areas of responsibility as well as the establishment of corresponding project-specific and cross-project organizations.
