Project Development and Testing Certificate Course

Course Description

Once a project officially kicks-off, it enters the development stage. This is essentially the phase at which the project begins to slowly materialize, with team members actively working towards achieving the goal. At this point, stakeholders have been consulted, the project has been pitched and accepted, and it is now time to move into the development phase.

During the development stage, a project will go through its conception, initiation, implementation, and follow-up phases. At some point during the development stage, team members will begin to create test scenarios, which will lead to the testing phase. The testing phase is the examination and investigation period of a project, which is intended to inform stakeholders of performance levels and allow them to evaluate potential failure risks.

In this course, we will identify and study the key aspects that are needed for the successful completion of a project and the importance of project testing.
