The ISTQB® Agile Test Leadership at Scale (CT-ATLaS) certification focuses on how to organize and improve quality and testing across multiple teams in an agile organization. It also covers how to approach quality and testing at a strategic level in order to achieve higher business agility in an organization.
CT-ATLaS covers how to scale testing and quality assurance efforts by fostering a quality mindset and culture across the organization. This includes shifting from a traditional test management approach typically used in sequential development models to a quality assistance approach which builds on Lean and Agile principles and values.
It also includes how to adopt common Lean and Agile techniques and processes for analyzing and solving problems and how to use them to improve testing and quality in the organization.
According to the official CT-ATLaS syllabus (current v2.0), the structure is organized into five main chapters:
Chapter 1- Quality Assistance
Chapter 2- Improve Quality and Flow in a Value-Driven Organization
Chapter 3- Continuous Improvement of Quality and Testing
Chapter 4- Organizational Test Strategy in a Value-Driven Organization
Chapter 5- Test Process in a Value-Driven Organization
No sessions available.
After you complete an accredited CT-ATLaS training, you become eligible to take the official exam for the International Software Testing Qualifications Board (ISTQB) Specialist module.
To become eligible for the CT-ATLaS certification you must:
Hold a valid ISTQB Certified Tester Foundation Level (CTFL v4.0) certificate OR a CTFL certificate prior to v4.0 plus the Agile Tester Foundation Level (CT-AT) certificate.
Have sufficient practical experience in agile or scaled-agile testing contexts (many boards recommend at least 3 years of agile team or agile organization experience).
Prepare for the exam based on the CT-ATLaS syllabus v2.0 and pass the exam (40 questions, 120 minutes).
After you meet those prerequisites and pass the exam, you receive the CT-ATLaS certificate, confirming your advanced competence in leading quality and testing across agile teams at scale.

The Advanced Level Test Analyst certification provides the skills needed to perform structured and thorough software testing across the software development life cycle. It details the test analyst’s role and responsibilities at every step of a standard test process and expands on important test techniques.

The ISTQB® Advanced Level Test Management (CTAL-TM) certification provides the knowledge and competencies to take responsibility for managing all the testing activities across the software development lifecycle. It covers everything from how to design a suitable test approach for the project based on the organizational test strategy to building a test team or testing competencies to complete the necessary testing.
The ISTQB® Advanced Level Agile Technical Tester (CTAL-ATT) certification provides a thorough introduction to the technical testing skills which are fundamental in organizations using an Agile development approach.

The ISTQB® Foundation Level Agile Tester (CTFL-AT) certification provides the key testing skills necessary to successfully contribute to an Agile project. CTFL-AT covers agile testing in alignment with the principles of agile software development as outlined in the Agile Manifesto.
