The Software Testing Academy project aims at establishing the first-of-this-kind academy for everyone who wishes to develop his/her career in Software Testing. To this end, the partnership will develop 3 training pathways: agile testing, automation testing and accessibility testing. They were selected based on the current and emerging labor market needs.
The area on which we will focus within this training course is “Accessibility Testing”. The main objective for the students is to gain familiarity with the topic and the underlying mindset so they can be able to rely on their knowledge and take their first (advanced) steps in accessibility testing.
