The document provides information about the Certified Professional - Continuous Testing (CP-CT) certification course. The CP-CT certification focuses on continuous testing in DevOps projects and prepares participants to apply test automation and continuous testing strategies. The 3-day course covers agile principles, testing in DevOps, continuous integration, behavior-driven development with Cucumber, and hands-on experience with tools like Git, Jenkins, Docker and more. Participants must have 3+ years experience in BDD, agile or testing to be eligible for the CP-CT certification.

2. CERTIFIED PROFESSIONAL – CONTINUOUS TESTING (CP-CT) CERTIFICATION COURSE
What is CP-Continuous Testing?
CP-CT stands for “Certified Professional – Continuous Testing” certification prepared and honored by “Agile
Testing Alliance”.
The course is applicable for all roles and not just “testers”. Knowledge, experience & certification is
consciously designed to focus on “agile testing” and not just on “agile testers” in DevOps projects.
What is Continuous Testing?
Testing in DevOps requires a 360 degree much broader view than what has been traditionally been know
and done. Testing in DevOps is actually Continuous Testing, depicted on diagram below. The intent for the
program is to allow participants to practically go through the continuous testing in an automated manner.
How is it useful?
CP-CT prepares you for utilizing test automation in a continuous testing way in a DevOps project. It helps
you realize the tester’s role in planning and strategizing for Continuous Testing which will lead to Continuous
Delivery and Continuous Deployment. It gives you the insight into the cost-benefit analysis, the
opportunities and risks and the Agile team approaches to let the test-first strategy drive the quality goals of
the projects. The course covers BDD and Continuous Testing in a hands-on fashion using pairing techniques
of XP. It also covers the real-life challenges that a tester would face while applying the strategies. All the
concepts are driven using the case studies and actual continuous testing tasks involved in DevOps projects.
The course introduces you to the continuous testing tools such as GIT, Cucumber, JUnit and Selenium.
Am I Eligible?
Anyone having more than 3 years of experience in BDD agile or testing is eligible for CP-CT. If you have
already done CP-AAT then you automatically qualify for this course provided you have 1 year experience.
Duration?
CP-CT is designed specifically for corporates and working professionals alike. If you are a corporate and can’t
dedicate full day for training then you can opt for either 6 half days course or 3 full days course which is
followed by theory and practical exams.
