Tester Bootcamp

I'm leaving for 2 days to attend a tester bootcamp in Seattle (15th and 16th). The only downside is I'll miss Brandy and the kids, but I get to stay in a nice hotel in the downtown area. The bootcamp is a refresher course for me.

Overview of the course:
How do professional testers test software? This course teaches the techniques, tips, tricks, and strategies used by test professionals. You will learn and apply numerous detailed test design strategies for black-box (functional) testing and system testing. You will also learn practical techniques for planning, designing, and executing effective testing on real software projects. Determine how much testing is enough for your project, whether your test cases are adequate, and how to minimize wasted testing effort. This seminar emphasizes black box (functional) testing and system testing.

Like I said, this is mostly a refresher, but I will earn PMI (Project Management Institute) points for this course which is good. With enough points you can be certified through PMI.
