Empirix® Inc. announced today that it has launched a new e-TEST suite Advantage certification program developed specifically for QA professionals, consultants and software testers who want to strengthen their professional credentials while at the same time ensuring they have a solid understanding of Empirix e-TEST suite. The program can be accessed through QAZone (http://qazone.empirix.com), Empirix's online QA community. The program is designed for both Empirix e-TEST suite customers as well as QA professionals who are looking to expand their knowledge and understanding of e-TEST suite.
"We're really excited about this program. We've always been aware that QA professionals have wanted a way to test and expand upon their knowledge of Empirix e-Test Suite, and the launch of QAZone reinforced that we need to share information outside of the Empirix customer base," explained Joe Fernandes, Director of Product Management for Empirix's Web Business Unit. "Consultants wanting to offer additional services have shown interest in e-Test Suite as well as QA professionals who may currently use another tool set, but have the desire to boost professional development while at the same time adding value to their organization by becoming e-TEST suite certified."
The e-TEST suite certification program curriculum consists of three areas:
- e-Tester Certified Professional - Focus on automated regression testing
- e-Load Certified Professional - Focus on Performance testing
- e-Manager Enterprise Certified Professional - Focus on Functional testing/Test Management
Users can elect to become certified in any or all of the three areas offered. List price for a single certification is $400. Pricing discounts will be available to corporations who would like to obtain certification for multiple employees and for those who choose more than one focus area for certification.
Empirix has designed the program to meet the schedule demands of QA professionals by offering the certification exams online - available 24/7 from anyway around the world. Empirix has teamed with ePath Learning to deliver the 3 proficiency tests. ePath Learning develops and offers the most advanced, yet easy to use, online and professional services enabling organizations like Empirix to create, deliver, and manage customized, on-demand learning solutions.
"I am really energized to see that Empirix has listened to QAZone community feedback regarding this, and is offering now an e-TEST suite certification program," said Jaspreet Sidhu from HCL. "Receiving industry validation in the areas of automation, performance testing or functional testing/test management is going to help us grow professionally, as our team is constantly looking for ways to enhance and build our skill set. Achieving substantiation that we all understand how to get the most out of the investment our organization has made in Empirix e-TEST suite is also viewed positively here in HCL."
Empirix's e-TEST suite was designed specifically for pre-deployment testing of Web applications and Web services. The solution has won numerous accolades from customers, analysts and press for its ease-of-use and ability to find potential issues that traditional testing tools miss.
