which may be Specification-based (Black-Box Techniques) or Experience-based (Error Guessing Techniques) and
ensuring Configuration Management, Risk Management and Defect Management. The course will include
concepts of Test generation, Test oracles, Test coverage, Regression, Mutation testing, Program Analysis, etc.

Why Learn Manual Testing?

Manual testing is a vital process without which no software release can occur, it makes the software usable. Manual
testing offers opportunities constantly to be exposed with new development methods, new platform
technologies, new product innovations.

Pre-requisites

There is no technical prerequisite for this course however basic IT background is essential.

Project Description: A company wants to create a commercial human resources management product that can be consumed and
customized by medium sized businesses located in a specific country and globally. It has two versions:

1. Professional
2. Enterprise

The features include Personal Information Management. When a customer or a business owner has a need to venture into the online world
or make updates on the already existing site or application, a solution to this business problem is needed, which is a piece of code. A
customer then approaches a software service provider to make this software a reality for them. That is when the software project inception
begins.
