OpenText ALM Training: Requirements, Tests & Defects (QC)

About the Course

What OpenText ALM Training Teaches

OpenText ALM, earlier sold as HP and then Micro Focus ALM/Quality Center, is a tool that keeps all testing work for a software project in one place. Teams record what the software must do, plan the tests, run them and track every defect until it is fixed. OpenText ALM training teaches you to do this work as a business user, without any programming.

A business user is the person who writes requirements, checks that tests cover them, runs or reviews tests and reports on quality. That makes OpenText ALM training useful for testers, business analysts, QA leads and project managers. If your projects are SAP-based, SAP testing training shows how the same test process applies to SAP systems.

The Four Main Areas in OpenText ALM Training

OpenText ALM Training Area	What You Do There
Requirements	Write and organise what the software must do, then link each requirement to tests
Test Plan	Build a tree of test cases with steps and expected results
Test Lab	Group tests into test sets, run them and record pass or fail
Defects	Log problems found in testing and follow them from new to closed

Why Traceability Matters in OpenText ALM Training

Traceability means you can follow a line from each requirement to its tests, their results and any defects. When a manager asks whether a feature is ready, or an auditor asks how something was tested, the answer is already in ALM. OpenText ALM training shows you how to build these links and turn them into reports and dashboard graphs.
