Kr. 24.500

Do you work with test management in your day-to-day role – either as a Test Manager or in another role where you’ve been given responsibility for leading the testing effort, for example in an agile context?

Would you like deeper insight into the test process and to learn how to choose the right test strategy?

Would you like to become even sharper at supporting your team in implementing and executing testing effectively – so it creates real value – whether you work in a traditional or agile context?

Then sign up for our course “ISTQB Advanced Test Management V3.0”, taught by expert test consultant and keynote speaker Gitte Ottosen.

It is scheduled for the following dates:

2, 3, 9, 10 and 19 November 2026

You will be part of a small class, giving us plenty of opportunity to discuss and reflect on concepts such as “a good test strategy” and “structured testing”, and to spar with each other on how we can work best with testing.

“ISTQB Advanced Test Management” is an intensive course that teaches you to define the overall goal of testing and to define a test strategy for the system under test. You will also gain insight into how to prepare test plans and schedules and ensure that your project has sufficient resources to complete the task.

As part of the course, you will also gain skills in relation to selecting, organizing and leading teams – to create a professional environment that ensures a motivated test team. The course also gives you a general insight into the role of the test manager with the responsibilities and tasks that come with it.

The course includes both theoretical reviews , practical exercises and discussions. Our teacher will try to engage the participants in the course with a focus on dialogue rather than on PowerPoint.

Course materials as well as the syllabus will be in English, and the course will be held in English as well.

Test Management v3.0 syllabus

The Test Management v3.0 syllabus covers the most important aspects of test management across three chapters.

Chapter 1: Managing the test activities

Participants learn:

to explain the test management activities (i.e. test planning, test monitoring, test control and test closure)
to define a project test strategy, including test objectives, and to select an appropriate test approach in accordance with the organizational test strategy and the project context
to manage projects in different contexts
to apply risk-based testing to focus testing on identified risks
to lead test process improvement activities by performing a project or iteration retrospective
how to improve tool support for testing by taking into account the risks, costs and benefits of tool support

Chapter 2: Managing the product

Participants learn:

how to monitor and control testing to achieve the test objectives by using test metrics, and how to assess and report test progress
to select appropriate test estimation techniques in different organizations and for different software development lifecycle models
how to define a defect workflow within defect management that fits sequential, agile and hybrid software development models

Chapter 3: Managing the team

Participants learn:

- how to analyze a given project context to identify the skills required by the test team
- to manage a team according to the whole-team approach
- how to define a business case for the test activities within the project

The course is tailored to test coordinators, test managers and other professionals responsible for carrying out test projects. It is a requirement that you have an ISTQB Foundation certification.

Before the course, we expect you to read the syllabus, which will be sent to you approximately 4 weeks before the course starts.

In addition, there will be homework assignments every evening during the course.

The exam is prepared by ISTQB and administered by DSTB. The exam is a 2-hour multiple choice with 50 questions, without aids. If English is not your first language, you can get 25% extra time.

You must get 65% correct to pass.

ISTQB Advanced Level Test Management lasts 5 days, divided into two modules of 2 and 2 days respectively, as well as 1 day of total repetition and a 2-hour exam on day 5.

Gitte Ottosen is an expert test consultant and accredited teacher in both ISTQB and TMAP. Gitte offers workshops and tailor-made teaching in agile development and testing and has several years of practical experience from various IT projects, which she uses in her teaching to put theory into a practical context and provide examples from the real world.

One of the most important things that I learnt from the course was that it’s impossible to improve everything at once. It takes time to see that costs are saved thanks to improving the test process, and it’s okay if not everyone sees it straight away. Furthermore, test management is not one-man army; in order to implement changes and build quality in a sustainable way, whole teams and management support is needed.

People in my network had given me a very good impression of Gitte, so I had been looking forward to attending the course with her. And I must say that Gitte was very talented and inspiring. Her passion for testing was contagious and contributed positively to my own enthusiasm for testing and test management.

The course contained plenty of real-life examples that demonstrated how all the ideal world scenarios can be adopted and how improvements work only as baby steps.

Gitte is very open and eager to share her own experience as well as hear our take on things.

I can highly recommend the course to testers who are transitioning into a test manager role. The course is a good upgrade from ISTQB Foundation, because there are many aspects of test management that you don’t necessarily understand from just working as a tester.

It was super relevant for me to learn how to determine the financial value of testing and how to put together a team in the right way, considering what skills are needed.

I liked that the course group was small. It gave us time to ask questions and discuss whatever was interesting. I gained a different perspective on how things could be approached from hearing what the other course participants were struggling with.
