New! Second Camera During ISTQB Exams


ISTQB has introduced a new requirement beginning no later than June 1st: All ISTQB exam takers must use their mobile device as a second camera during remotely proctored (online) exams. This does not affect exams taken in testing centers, but it does affect all exam providers worldwide.

On May 29th, our two-camera systems went live, and the response from exam takers has been excellent. With the pre-exam System Readiness Check, exam takers can simulate the exam experience before their exam day. This, along with the exam instructions page, makes it easy to prepare for your exam. This is yet another great example of how ASTQB and AT*SQA help make the process easy for you.

Good luck with your exam! We look forward to seeing you on the Official U.S. List of Certified and Credentialed Testers™, and if you're seeking a job, in AT*SQA's AT*Work™ List of Testers for Hire.

  • It proves you have the desire to move higher in your career and your organization in management.
