Model-based testing is an innovative testing approach to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of the test process. A model-based tester on a project uses models to drive test analysis and design, and keeps advantage of the models for other testing activities, such as test implementation and reporting.

ISTQB Model-based Tester certification complements the core foundation level as a specialist module. It provides a practical and easy entry to the MBT approach.

Certified model-based testers should be able to demonstrate their skills in the following areas:

• Objectives and motivations for model-based testing
• Activities specific to MBT and essential MBT artifacts
• Integrating MBT into the software development lifecycle
• MBT modeling (good practices, languages, types of MBT models)
• Test selection criteria used in model-based testing
• MBT test implementation and execution
• Evaluating and deploying an MBT Approach

SSTB offers MBT examination and certification in English. Se Calendar for details.
Currently there is no ISTQB MBT course in Sweden, but there is a book for self study:
       ”Model-Based Testing Essentials - Guide to the Istqb Certified Model-Based Tester - Foundation Level”
