ISTQB Certification Exam Frequently Asked Questions
General ISTQB Questions
What is the ISTQB Exam?
The ISTQB certification exam is a measure of your software testing knowledge. There are multiple ISTQB exams that cover different aspects of software knowledge, such as test automation, performance testing, security testing, etc. The first ISTQB exam that anyone will take is the ISTQB Foundation Level exam because you must pass ISTQB Foundation Level (CTFL) before you can take any other ISTQB exam.
What is the International Software Testing Qualifications Board (ISTQB)? What are ISTQB country boards?
ISTQB is an international non-profit organization that creates the globally accepted software testing body of knowledge known as ISTQB Certification. ISTQB consists of official country boards that are responsible for creating the exams in the local language of their country.
For example, ASTQB is the American Software Testing Qualifications Board. It is the official ISTQB country board for the United States of America (U.S.) so it creates American English versions of the ISTQB software testing certification exams.
What does ISTQB stand for? (What is the full form of ISTQB?)
ISTQB stands for International Software Testing Qualifications Board. It consists of representatives from each existing national board, such as the ASTQB, the American Software Testing Qualifications Board. The ISTQB decides on the standards for certification. Working parties within ISTQB are responsible for developing and maintaining the various software testing syllabi and exams. Country boards such as ASTQB (ISTQB in the United States) then use those syllabi to create exams in the language that is most appropriate for that country. This is why American employers use the Official U.S. List of Certified Software Testers™ – American employers want to know you understand American English in a software testing environment and have taken the ASTQB American English version of the ISTQB exam. The ISTQB exam provider AT*SQA lets you take ISTQB certification exams from anywhere in the world online from home or at a testing center.

ASTQB delivers the complete list of certifications, from Foundation to Advanced (Test Analyst, Technical Test Analyst, Test Manager, Agile Tester) and Expert modules.

If you are an experienced tester, you’ll find it relatively easy, but it does provide a common testing vocabulary and set of principles that make communication more efficient across your testing teams, so it’s a very useful certification no matter your experience level.

Neither AT*SQA nor ASTQB are able to disclose any other further information about the exam or their results. The results are sent only to the test taker. AT*SQA and ASTQB consider the certification to be specific to an individual, so they do not honor requests from supervisors or companies, but instead, let them know they must contact the exam taker to request the results. This is true regardless of who paid for the exam.
Does everybody take the exact same ISTQB exam?
No. The questions come from a pool of questions and are being combined differently so that the exam itself changes constantly while the level of difficulty remains comparable. New questions are constantly being developed by the ASTQB’s subject matter experts.
