About the training

The ISTQB® CTFL Automotive Tester (CTFL-AuT) training represents a connection between the ISTQB Certified Tester Standard and the industry-specific requirements of the automotive industry. You will receive an overview of important test procedures and standards that are relevant for testing in the automotive sector . The training lasts 2 days and covers the specific requirements for testing E/E systems in the automotive sector based on established standards (Automotive SPICE®, ISO 26262, AUTOSAR® etc.). Various virtual test environments (MiL, SiL, Hil) are presented in exercises and their correct application practiced. Additional static and dynamic test procedures for the automotive sector, which supplement the ISTQB® Foundation Level, are introduced and deepened in exercises.

In the training we teach the content of the official curriculum (CTFL-AuT) of the ISTQB®. In addition, our trainers present as many practical examples as possible, so that later it is easy for you to apply what you have learned.
