Overview
Tricentis Tosca is a software testing tool designed for automating continuous end-to-end testing for software applications.
In this instructor-led, live training training participants will learn how to use Tosca to carry out end-to-end (web + backend) testing. The training combines theory with practice in a live lab environment, giving participants the chance to interact with the technology, the instructor and their peers.
The training starts with an overview of traditional code and script based automation testing and contrasts it with Tosca's model-based (MBT) approach. Participants learn how to create and execute test cases using Tosca's default modules as well as how to custom build their own modules for execution.
From software modeling principals to test coverage across different browsers, this training walks participants through both theory and practice and enables them to implement their own testing solution in Tosca.
