How to Pass Any ISTQB Certification Exam


ISTQB exams are challenging, but with preparation, you can succeed!

The ASTQB support team has talked with many of our testers and trainers about their advice for taking the ISTQB exams. Some key points are:
  • Give yourself motivation: Purchase your exam voucher now. You will have 365 days to use it, so you have flexibility but also a deadline. 
  • Preparation is key: Start studying right away so you have enough time to prepare for your ISTQB exam. 
  • Study the sample exams – but not just the sample exams: The free ISTQB sample exams are useful, but don’t rely on them completely. Just because you know those ISTQB sample exam answers doesn’t mean that you know the answers to the exact questions on the exams. Again, study the syllabus and glossary.
