Testimonials

"I gained enormously from the ISTQB® Certified Tester (Foundation Level) course I took with Reto Müller.

I appreciated the fact that it was about much more than just exam preparation.  The exam preparation was in fact very thorough, but more than that, Reto helped us to think fundamentally about testing and what we are trying to achieve.  I took away some key principles that I apply daily in my work now.  Taking the time to learn some terminology is also useful when collaborating with testers and developers.

Reto created a convivial team atmosphere on the course which lead to interesting exchanges with other testers.  The comfortable surroundings of the Hotel Krone and the excellent catering were helpful." (Apr 17)

“Der ISTQB® Certified Tester (Foundation Level) Kurs unterstützte mich enorm dabei, ein fundiertes Basiswissen für Softwaretesting aufzubauen. Sowohl die im Kurs erlernten Teststrategien, -elemente, und -techniken als auch Terminologien begegnen mir bei den täglichen Aufgaben im Job und können nun dank des Kurses in einen Gesamtkontext eingeordnet werden.

Das Kursmaterial war bestens aufbereitet, wurde detailliert und verständlich erklärt und Reto stand stets zur Klärung individueller Fragen zur Verfügung. Ausserdem wurden die Teilnehmer dazu motiviert, eigene Sichtweisen und Erfahrungen aus ihrem Umfeld einzubringen und zu diskutieren. Um den eigenen Horizont zu erweitern, empfand ich dies als extrem wertvoll. Somit war der Kurs sehr praxisnah.

Der Zeitplan war angemessen und sowohl die Räumlichkeiten als auch die technischen Voraussetzungen zur Veranschaulichung des Inhalts waren einwandfrei.” (Mar 20)
