Welcome

This site provides instructional materials (slides and videos) used for AST-Black Box Software Testing by the Association for Software Testing's own courses. All materials including updates made by the AST are Creative Commons-licensed.

These materials were pulled from the open source, creative commons licensed BBST® material at The Center for Software Testing Education & Research. The AST no longer uses the trademarked BBST® term but where applicable we note that BBST® is a registered trademark of Altom Consulting. (If you find this term used in our materials please file a bug.)

Note: This site is very much a work in progress

Goals

The goals of this project are simple:

1. Host updated materials used in our classes

2. Eventually provide self-study options

3. Create a backup of those public files in case www.testingeducation.org/BBST becomes unavailabile in the future.
