Frontend & Backend for Testers

Software testing is especially important for web applications. In order for you to be particularly effective as a software tester, you need a good understanding of the structure and components of web applications. Above all, an overview of the interfaces and the resulting different types of risks is helpful in order to be able to apply a suitable test strategy depending on the use case.

The goal of the training is a basic understanding of the structure and components of a web application, the interfaces and the data exchange. As a tester, you will be able to assess possible risks more precisely and minimize them efficiently through testing.

In this interactive training you will get an overview of the structure of a web application. Using a practical example, we will look at the main components of a web application – the frontend, the backend and the database – and learn about their most important features and tasks. Based on this, we analyze which problems can occur with the different components and then select the appropriate testing strategy.

Attention: No classroom lecture! But rather a real participatory training with many different examples and training cases from the real-world!
