About This Course
Agile has fundamentally changed how software is built, and it has changed what testers need to know to be effective. Traditional testing approaches simply cannot keep pace with rapid sprint cycles, continuous delivery, and cross functional team structures. Agile testing bridges that gap by embedding quality into every sprint and every collaboration, enabling teams to ship reliable software faster. The ISTQB Agile Tester certification proves you understand how to work that way, and this course gets you there.
This course is your complete guide to the ISTQB CTFL AT syllabus. Whether you are a software tester, QA engineer, developer, business analyst, or project manager, the content is designed to give you the skills and confidence to contribute meaningfully to Agile teams and pass the ISTQB Agile Tester exam. Every topic is taught with engaging lessons, real world examples from actual Agile projects, and expert exam strategies built for the ISTQB format.
You will cover Agile fundamentals including the Agile Manifesto, Scrum, and Kanban. You will understand the tester role within cross functional Agile teams, how unit, integration, system, and acceptance testing fit into Agile workflows, and how they differ from traditional approaches. You will also master key practices including test driven development, acceptance test driven development, and behavior driven development, and understand how continuous integration and test automation support Agile quality.
Please note that as per the official ISTQB portal, exams and training for CTFL AT are available until May 2027 for English and November 2027 for non English. Agile testing content is also available in the ISTQB CTFL v4.0 and the advanced CTAL AT certification. By the end of this course you will be certified, confident, and equipped to add real value to any Agile team you join.
What You'll Learn
Test Case Creation and Management in Xray
Learn to create, edit, and manage test cases in Xray for Jira Cloud using structured test design practices. Understand how to build a test repository that is organized for reuse, scalability, and easy navigation as your test suite grows alongside your product.
AI Powered Test Case Documentation
Learn how to use Artificial Intelligence inside Xray to generate test case documentation automatically from your requirements. Understand how this AI feature accelerates test design, reduces manual writing time, and ensures your test cases are consistent and aligned with the acceptance criteria defined in your Jira stories.
Test Execution and Defect Reporting
Learn how to execute test cases in Jira Cloud using Xray, streamlining your validation workflows and improving overall test coverage. Understand how to report defects directly during execution so every failure is captured, linked to the test that found it, and immediately visible to your development team in Jira.
Test Results Analysis and Xray Dashboards
Analyze test runs and interpret execution results using Xray dashboards to produce accurate reporting and actionable insights for your team and stakeholders. Learn how to read execution trends, spot quality patterns early, and communicate test status in a way that informs release decisions rather than just reporting pass and fail counts.
Test Sets, Test Plans and Repositories
Organize your tests effectively using test sets, test plans, and test repositories in Xray to maintain scalable and reusable testing structures. Learn how to group tests logically, plan executions aligned with Agile sprints, and structure your repository so the right tests are always easy to find and ready to run.
Requirement Coverage and Traceability
Use requirement coverage analysis in Xray to validate that all user stories and epics are tested, reducing the risk of missed functionality before release. Master linking tests to Jira issues for end to end traceability across requirements, defects, and test executions so every stakeholder can see exactly what has been tested and what has not.
Test Coverage and Quality Reporting
Generate detailed test coverage, traceability, and quality reports in Xray to monitor project health and support informed decision making across your team. Learn how to build reports that answer the questions your managers and product owners actually ask: what is tested, what is not, and what is the current quality risk before we ship.
Xray Best Practices for Agile Teams
Apply Xray best practices to manage requirements, track defects, and align testing activities with Agile workflows in Jira Cloud projects. Learn how to structure your test management approach so it complements rather than slows down Agile delivery, and how to get QA, development, and product working from the same quality picture inside Jira.

What is Xray and why is it used with Jira?
Xray is one of the most popular test management apps for Jira Software, used by QA teams around the world to manage test cases, plan and run test cycles, track coverage, and generate quality reports without leaving Jira. It adds a complete test management layer to the project management tool most Agile teams already use, keeping testing and development work visible and aligned in a single environment.
What is the AI feature in Xray and does this course cover it?
Yes, this course covers the AI powered test case documentation feature in Xray, which automatically generates test case content from your requirements and user stories. It is one of the most practical productivity features Xray has added in recent versions and can save QA teams significant time on initial test case writing. The course shows you exactly how to use it on real Jira Cloud projects.
How does Xray compare with Zephyr for Jira?
Both Xray and Zephyr are leading test management tools for Jira Cloud and each has a strong following in the industry. Xray is often preferred for its deep traceability features, Gherkin and BDD support, and the structured way it handles test repositories, test plans, and coverage analysis. Zephyr is popular for its simplicity and test cycle workflows. This course teaches you Xray in full so you can make the most of it whichever tool your team has chosen.
How long does this course take to complete?
The course has 4 hours of video content covering the full Xray feature set from test case creation through to advanced reporting. Most students complete it in a single focused day or across a couple of evenings.
