Public Class: Rapid Software Testing Explored with Michael Bolton in Person! (NZ)

Location: Auckland, New Zealand
Date: Sep 19, 2023 to Sep 21, 2023

Rapid Software Testing Explored (RSTE) is a three-day live workshop that explores and explains the Rapid Software Testing methodology. Through hands-on activities, exercises, and interactive discussion, we challenge assumptions and expose common misconceptions about testing practices. Then we show you clear and powerful ways to think about testing that allow you to test responsibly and systematically, so that you focus on business risk and do the deep testing that your project needs.

RST Explored is the latest version of the original class formerly called “Rapid Software Testing.” The class is designed for new and experienced testers alike.

Read details about the class.
