Abstract
Training IT professionals in a new role is a big challenge, especially when their context and role are particular, requiring specific qualifications. This article describes an experience of training new professionals in the creation and updating of test cases using the collaborative learning technique Testing DOJO in the context of the mobile software industry. We evaluated the influence of Testing DOJO related to motivation, collaboration and learning perception regarding the creation and updating of test cases. To achieve this objective, we used a methodology based on three steps: literature review, proposal creation and a feasibility study in which we assess employee perception. The results obtained show that the use of the Testing Dojo contributed positively to the motivation, collaboration and learning perception of the test developers who participated in the study, enabling improvements in interaction, knowledge exchange and collaboration among participants. We also verified that the use of the technique can be an interesting alternative for training new members to create and update test cases in software testing teams composed of several test developers working on the same project.
