ISTQB Glossary of Terms in Software testing

This deck contains definitions and explanations of key terms in software testing according to the ISTQB glossary. It covers fundamental concepts such as acceptance, acceptance criteria, types of test cases (high and low level), incidents during testing, agile development and testing methodologies, user roles (actors), assessment processes, software quality attributes (analyzability, adaptability, attractiveness, suitability), various test design techniques (statement, condition, branch testing), and crucial testing processes (issue management, test automation). Additionally, terms related to software development and quality assurance such as change and configuration control, requirements, user testing, audit trails, and performance metrics are addressed. Overall, the deck provides a broad foundation of knowledge for understanding software testing methods, quality attributes, and processes in both agile and traditional software development.

Dieses Deck enthält Definitionen und Erläuterungen zu zentralen Begriffen aus dem Bereich Softwaretests gemäß ISTQB-Glossar. Es umfasst grundlegende Konzepte wie Akzeptanz, Akzeptanzkriterien, Testfallarten (Hoch- und Niedrigebene), Vorfälle während Tests, agile Entwicklung und Testmethoden, Benutzerrollen (Akteur), Bewertungsverfahren, Qualitätsmerkmale von Software (Analysierbarkeit, Anpassungsfähigkeit, Attraktivität, Geeignetheit), verschiedene Testdesigntechniken (Zustands-, Bedingungs- und Verzweigungstests) sowie wichtige Testprozesse (Fehlermanagement, Testautomatisierung). Außerdem werden Begriffe rund um die Softwareentwicklung und Qualitätssicherung wie Änderungs- und Konfigurationskontrolle, Anforderungen, Nutzertests, Audit-Trails und Leistungskennzahlen behandelt. Insgesamt vermittelt das Deck ein breites Fundament an Fachwissen für das Verständnis von Softwaretestmethoden, Qualitätsmerkmalen und Prozessen in der agilen und traditionellen Softwareentwicklung.
