This course is designed for business users and testers who want to learn how to verify user requirements before committing resources to the design and build phases. You can choose to use our case sample or bring in one of your own to work with instead. We'll walk you through the steps you should take to validate user requirements and determine whether they are ready for the next phase and, if not, what needs to be done to correct them. You will learn how to determine whether your requirements are consistent, accurate and clear, and will meet the level of quality product your organization needs.
