Abstract


Many articles and reports highlighted how many recent computer science and software engineering undergraduate students often face obstacles when starting their professional jobs, because of misalignment of the earned skills during their academic school education with what is really required in the industry. To reduce the gap and to make sure up to date software testing course is utilized in our university, we design and develop in this paper testing course for undergraduate students in our university as work on progress as we believe education courses should be updated to achieve both the well-known standards and the market needs. Moreover, this article summarizes the findings and the lesson learned of using the designed course as a real experiment in university education.
