Abstract

With the increase in the importance of software quality and enterprise needs testers, how to train students become qualified testers is an arduous task for education community all over the world. CDIO is a new mode in modern engineering education distinguished from traditional modes. According CDIO model, we conducted software testing course teaching reform. Course content, teaching methods and assessment methods in line with CDIO education philosophy are introduced. We have established a student-centered, user-friendly, accessible, and interactive workspace. These results indicate that these reforms based On CDIO can achieve a better teaching effect in software testing course.
