Training Designed for the Future of Testing
Build the Skills to Use Generative AI in Software Testing
Generative AI is rapidly changing how software testing professionals analyse requirements, design tests, generate testware, automate activities and work with increasingly intelligent testing tools.
But effective use of AI requires more than knowing how to ask ChatGPT a question.
ISTQB Testing with Generative AI (CT-GenAI) training from Impimpi Technologies develops a structured understanding of how Generative AI and Large Language Models can be applied to software testing, including prompt engineering, evaluating AI-generated outputs, managing hallucinations and bias, protecting sensitive data and integrating GenAI into testing processes.

About the course
What Is ISTQB Testing with Generative AI?
The ISTQB Testing with Generative AI (CT-GenAI) certification is a specialist certification focused on the effective and responsible use of Generative AI within software testing.
The certification moves beyond general AI awareness to explore how testers can work with Large Language Models and other GenAI technologies to support real testing activities.
You’ll learn how to structure and refine prompts, apply GenAI to test analysis and design, support automated regression testing, evaluate AI-generated results and identify risks such as hallucinations, reasoning errors, bias, security vulnerabilities and data privacy concerns.
The syllabus also introduces more advanced concepts including Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), AI agents, fine-tuning and LLMOps, as well as organisational strategies for adopting Generative AI within testing teams.

What Does the ISTQB Generative AI Course Cover?
The ISTQB Testing with Generative AI syllabus covers five core areas, combining GenAI concepts with their application to professional software testing.
Generative AI Foundations for Software Testing
Understand Generative AI and Large Language Models, including tokenisation, context windows, different types of LLMs, multimodal models and how AI chatbots and LLM-powered testing applications can support testing.
Prompt Engineering for Software Testing
Learn how to create structured and effective prompts and apply prompting techniques to test analysis, test design, test implementation, automated regression testing, test monitoring and test control. Evaluate AI-generated results and iteratively improve prompts for better testing outcomes.
Managing Generative AI Risks
Learn to recognise and mitigate hallucinations, reasoning errors, bias and non-deterministic AI behaviour. Explore data privacy, security, environmental impact and relevant AI regulations, standards and best-practice frameworks.
LLM-Powered Test Infrastructure
Explore how GenAI can become part of testing infrastructure through concepts such as Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), AI agents, LLM fine-tuning and LLMOps.
Deploying GenAI in Test Organisations
Understand how organisations can introduce Generative AI into their testing processes, including GenAI strategy, selecting appropriate models, managing Shadow AI, developing team capabilities and evolving existing test processes.

WHY CT-GENAI
Why Get ISTQB Testing with Generative AI Certified?
ISTQB Testing with Generative AI gives testing professionals powerful new capabilities, but using these technologies effectively requires understanding both what they can do and where they can go wrong.
Apply GenAI to Real Testing Activities
Learn how Generative AI can support test analysis, test design, implementation, regression testing, monitoring and other testing activities.
Develop Better Prompt Engineering Skills
Move beyond basic prompting and learn structured techniques for creating, evaluating and refining prompts for software testing tasks.
Evaluate AI Output Critically
Develop the ability to assess generated testware for accuracy, relevance and quality rather than simply accepting AI-generated results.
Understand and Manage AI Risks
Recognise hallucinations, reasoning errors, bias, privacy concerns and security risks that can affect the reliability of GenAI-assisted testing.
Understand the Technology Behind the Tools
Build your knowledge of LLMs, multimodal models, RAG, AI agents, fine-tuning and LLMOps so you can understand more than just the user interface of an AI tool.
Prepare for AI-Enabled Testing
Develop internationally recognised knowledge that can help you contribute to the responsible adoption of Generative AI within testing teams and organisations.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
Who Is ISTQB Testing with Generative AI Training For?
ISTQB CT-GenAI is designed for software testing and quality professionals who want to understand how Generative AI can be applied effectively, safely and responsibly within their work.
It is particularly valuable if you are already experimenting with tools such as ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Gemini or other LLM-powered solutions and want to move from informal experimentation to a more structured approach.
Already Using AI for Testing?
Learn how to improve your prompting, evaluate AI-generated outputs and recognise risks that may be overlooked when GenAI tools are used informally.
New to Generative AI?
Build a structured understanding of LLMs and Generative AI before learning how these technologies can support different software testing activities.
