To Advanced Strategies, testing is not a phase to be done once construction is completed, but rather, testing is composed of verification and validation techniques to be used throughout the development life cycle.
Historically, testing has consumed roughly 50% of the labor required to produce working applications, but systems development professionals have devoted less than 5% of their education time to testing.
By learning strategies for testing intelligently, minimal testing can often be done with near maximal results.

Course Outcomes:
Students of Advanced Strategies’ Testing Strategies Course will return to work with a variety of testing concepts and techniques for designing tests of work products throughout the systems development life cycle.
