Rwanda could soon be home to global professional software testers after the country's software testing qualifications board (RWSTQB) was admitted as the 69th member board at the International Software Testing Qualifications Board (ISTQB), officials have said.
The development was announced at a General Assembly recently in Tokyo, Japan, making Rwanda an independent member, after being under South Africa for decades.
According to him, Rwanda has a predominantly young population, and the service industry is the primary sector of its economy, with an increasing emphasis on information and communication technology . "For many testers who are the sole testers at their firm, a meet-up provides a space for them to not only discuss what they're currently working on but also to identify what technologies other companies are working with."
