Learn the fundamentals of software testing through hands-on practice and real-world projects. Gain skills in test case creation, bug reporting, test execution, and quality assurance to build a strong foundation for a career in software testing.
Manual Testing Training is a foundational and structured learning program that teaches software testers, QA professionals, and aspiring test engineers how to manually test software applications without the use of automation tools — by executing test cases, identifying defects, and validating that software behaves as expected according to business requirements. Manual Testing is the process where a human tester actively interacts with the software application, simulates real end-user behavior, and verifies the functionality, usability, and reliability of the system by following predefined test cases and exploratory testing techniques.
Foundational concepts in Manual and Automation testing. Understand verification vs. validation, application types, and master test case execution workflows within JIRA.

The trainer covered the basics before moving on to advance-level concepts. I didn't know anything about Manual Testing Certification to begin with but learned a lot by competing with others for certification.
Manual Testing is the process of testing software manually without using automation tools. Testers execute test cases to identify bugs and ensure the application works as expected.
The main types are:
A Test Case is a document that contains test steps, expected results, input data, and conditions used to verify a specific functionality of an application.
STLC is the process followed during software testing. It includes Requirement Analysis, Test Planning, Test Case Development, Test Execution, Defect Reporting, and Test Closure.
Smoke Testing checks whether the major features of an application are working after a new build, while Sanity Testing verifies that a specific bug fix or functionality works correctly.
Verification checks whether the software is developed according to requirements, while Validation checks whether the software meets the user's needs and works correctly.
A Defect Life Cycle is the process a bug follows from identification to closure. Common stages are New, Assigned, Open, Fixed, Retest, Verified, Closed, and Reopened.
Regression Testing is performed after code changes or bug fixes to ensure that existing features continue to work correctly and no new defects are introduced.
