Course Introduction
Hello, and welcome to this course on designing a test strategy.
In this course, you'll learn how to analyze functional specifications so you can build an effective test strategy and a test plan suited to your upcoming test campaign.
In the first part, you'll explore functional specifications and produce a requirements review that will help define the scope of your testing project.
In the second part, you'll design your test strategy by aligning your requirements review with your available resources and the time you have to run your test campaign.
In the final part of the course, you'll dive into writing the test plan, where you’ll put together the test cases and scenarios required to carry out an efficient test campaign.
