ISEB Intermediate Software Testing Exam

For those of you that think that this is just a piece of paper and proves nothing then I believe that you are wrong. Having just completed this exam I was pleasantly surprised to find how difficult this  actually was. All the info learnt and all the theory are for nothing in this if you cannot apply your knowledge to real situations.

It means that rather than just having a load of techniques, that you are not sure where to use, you can now identify what techniques to use in the planning stages of testing. For me it has given the insight to be able to greater understand a test analyst and test manager role. I also feel i have a best practice to aim for in my work.

One topic that I found especially usefull was the sections that covered risk. This will aid me on a day to day basis with scoping out the areas that I will be able to test.
