COURSE FEATURES
During the course delegates work on a series of highly detailed practical exercises. These reinforce the lecture sessions and demonstrate how the techniques improve software quality in 3 key ways:

* Verifying interpretation of requirements
* Proving full correctness of the design
* Optimising use of testing resources

Upon completion delegates are able to play a major role in Testing and Quality Assurance at all levels.
