Certified Test Automation Professional (CTAP)

About this course

Test automation encompasses far more than just using a tool to run scripts, yet most training focuses solely on tool usage, neglecting other vital factors essential for a successful test automation project.

The Certified Test Automation Professional (CTAP) certification program is designed to educate participants on all critical aspects of test automation, including techniques, processes, organisational factors, and the key role of people in automation. By completing this training and passing the CTAP exam, you demonstrate a comprehensive understanding of these element contributing to successful test automation.

Many test automation projects today struggle to achieve their desired outcomes. Therefore, we believe this training is ideal for both newcomers and seasoned professionals in the test automation field. The knowledge gained from this course will equip you to effectively contribute to the success of test automation initiatives.

Our instructor-led course spans two to three days of in-person training (depending on prior knowledge), which can be divided into half-day sessions. You can attend classes on-site at our training locations in the Netherlands or participate remotely from anywhere in the world through our Remote Online Training option.

Our engaging approach combines theoretical knowledge with practical assignments, supported by our advanced learning platform. With a wealth of quizzes, assignments, practice exams, and supplementary materials, you’ll be thoroughly prepared for the CTAP exam.

The training is conducted by our CTAP-accredited trainers, who have demonstrated their expertise in this field.
