When it comes to software testing, it's important to use a common language and follow common principles; Differences in testing terminology can pose a considerable risk. Using unclear definitions or terms in the context of a testing services company can be detrimental, in the sense of causing errors or requiring the reorganization of some specific work. Differences in testing principles can cause misunderstandings or conflicts. When the subject of software testing is approached following a certain set of principles, and the testers follow other paths, then we can have project management problems, as well as friction between the elements. Fortunately, there is an easy way to avoid most of these problems: ensure that software testing professionals hold an ISTQB\u00ae Foundation Certification. This certification (recommended for testers with at least 6 months' experience) guarantees that: Testing professionals have a solid base of knowledge about software testing, used and recognized in over 130 countries; Testing professionals use common terminology, minimizing problems of understanding and miscommunication. Remember that by including certified testers, you are increasing your project's chances of success. ISTQB\u00ae Certification Exams can be taken at PSTQB in a variety of languages: English, French, Spanish, German and even Portuguese, in person or in the comfort of your own home.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":10148,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10134","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-destaque"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pstqb.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10134","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pstqb.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pstqb.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pstqb.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pstqb.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10134"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/pstqb.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10134\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pstqb.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10148"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pstqb.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10134"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pstqb.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10134"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pstqb.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10134"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
