In this certification, there are various levels starting from foundation to expert. The Foundation Level is first step towards becoming International Software Testing Qualifications Board (ISTQB®) Certified Tester. This certification is relevant across various practices, even for Waterfall or Agile.
ISTQB® Foundation Level qualification is about demonstrating practical knowledge about software testing concepts. It is also useful for higher level mangers for basic understanding of software testing discipline.
