ISTQB GenAI Testing Certification Course FAQs

AI is transforming software testing by augmenting, automating, and optimizing how quality assurance (QA) teams work. It doesn’t replace testers but acts as a force multiplier across the software development lifecycle.

The CT-GenAI  exam  consists of 40 multiple-choice questions based on real-world scenarios, with a duration of 60 minutes (or 75 minutes for non-native English speakers). The exam is closed book, and the minimum passing score is 65%. Questions are weighted to reflect their complexity and relevance to key learning objectives.
