Join a Task Analysis Session

We have co-created a complete list of broad tasks for the Junior Software Tester Job Profile. It's now time to break those tasks down into procedural steps. By doing this, we can develop useful learning outcomes and training materials for the next generation of software testers.

We need your help to discover the procedural steps! We're running weekly Task Analysis sessions that the community is welcome to join. Come share your knowledge and experience, and help us make sure that future junior testers have everything they need to succeed. Can you make a session?

Why Get Involved?

There are three reasons why you should help us develop our curriculum:

1. Our goal is good. We want to improve testing education for everyone, so our curriculum will be open-source. This means that anyone can access it for free and find or create content that meets the outcomes. We'll also be creating our own content that you can purchase, which will be the best there is!
2. You'll be helping the next generation. By contributing your knowledge and insights, you'll help the next generation of software testers learn the relevant tasks and skills they need to be successful in their jobs. No more learning irrelevant content with gaping holes. Our curricula will be focused on helping folks get a job and fulfill their role.
3. You'll get recognition for your contribution. We value the contributions of our community members, and we give due credit to everyone involved. So if you'd like to be recognized for helping shape a revolutionary, new curriculum for junior testers, then get involved today!
