The ISTQB® Certified Tester – Testing with Generative AI (CT-GenAI) extends the Foundation Level and provides testing and quality-engineering professionals with a structured, hands-on path to master how, when, and why to use Large Language Models (LLMs) and other generative-AI techniques across the entire test process – from requirements analysis and test design to automation, reporting, and continuous improvement.

It not only explains the fundamentals of GenAI but also builds practical skills through real-world prompt-engineering patterns and applied testing use cases. Testers will learn how to integrate GenAI capabilities responsibly while managing key risks such as hallucinations, bias, security, privacy, and environmental impact.

The CT-GenAI validates the ability to:

- Understand the fundamental concepts, capabilities, and limitations of generative AI.

- Develop practical skills in prompting large language models for software testing.

- Gain insight into the risks and mitigations of using generative AI for software testing.

- Gain insight into the applications of generative AI solutions for software testing.

- Contribute effectively to the definition and implementation of a generative AI strategy and roadmap for software testing within an organization.
