This hands-on certification builds and validates your ability to create, run, and manage manual testing with AI on Katalon True Platform. No exam is required.

To get certified, simply use Katalon Studio to complete the requirements listed below.

Who is this certification ideally for? Manual testers and QAs who want to test faster with AI on Katalon True Platform. No coding required.

The new standard in testing

You learn the modern way to test, directing AI to draft cases and run tests, then applying human judgment. The skills teams hire for now.

Skills, not a quiz

No multiple-choice exam. You build and prove real manual-testing skills by doing the actual work in True Platform.

Learn and do together

There is coursework that supports how-to learning for each requirement. So you can learn and do in the same motion.

Validated by real work

Your badge is earned from genuine product usage and outcomes (like reaching passed executions) — proof of capability, not attendance.

Complete the requirements

Use Katalon True Platform to complete the activities below. The left column is what you do; the right explains the skill each activity aims to build.

Requirements

Solution to use: Katalon True Platform

Skills gained

What you learn, and how each activity builds it:

Create and organize:

Generate & approve 20 AI-generated manual test cases, either from:
- Synced ALM requirements (Jira, Azure DevOps)
- Directly from AI chat window

Create 10 manual test cases from scratch without AI

Build 3 test suites and organize test cases within them

Test creation & organization:

AI-assisted test design: Turn requirements into structured test cases while using human judgment to verify their reliability.

Independent test design: Translate testing objectives into clear, executable test cases without relying on AI assistance.

Test organization: Group test cases into purposeful suites that are easier to manage, execute, and maintain.

Execute:

Run 10 AI autonomous manual executions with cloud environments

Run 10 manual or automated test executions without AI

Reach 5 passed test executions

Run a live testing session (web browser or mobile native app) for exploratory testing

Test execution:

AI autonomous testing: Delegate manual testing tasks to AI while reviewing execution evidence and validating the result.

Independent execution: Carry out tests, record outcomes, and handle the execution process without AI assistance.

Exploratory live testing: Investigate application behavior in real time and capture issues across different user environments.

Troubleshoot and report:

Review 10 test results from completed executions

Get AI insights in at least one dashboard

Complete one of the following:
- Share 3 execution reports with stakeholders
- Report 3 issues to connected ALM

Reporting & analytics:

Result analysis: Read execution outcomes and tell a real failure from noise. Built by reviewing the 10 results.

AI-powered quality analysis: Use AI to surface trends, anomalies, and risks you’d otherwise miss.

Test communication: Turn results into a clear quality story stakeholders can act on.

NOTE: Katalon may update certification criteria over time. Certifications earned under previous requirements remain valid for 2 years from the issue date.

Q: Who should take this certification? Do I need prior experience?

Anyone who wants to build AI-assisted manual testing skills on True Platform. No prior experience and no coding required.

Q: How do I get the True AI Tester Certification?

Log in, enroll, and complete the requirements above through real usage in True Platform. Progress is tracked automatically, and there is no exam.

Q: Do I need to complete any courses?

Courses are not required, but each requirement is backed by a short course. If a step is new to you, learn it there first, then apply it right away.

Q: How do I build real skills with these requirements?

Treat each requirement as a real testing task, not a box to tick. The skill is in the process: deciding how to approach it and judging the result. These are the same things testers do every day, designing cases, running them, exploring the app, confirming fixes, and reporting, done here with AI in the loop and with intent. That’s how the skill forms.

Q: How do hands-on requirements build real skills rather than just completing tasks?

Each requirement is a real testing job. Generating and approving AI test cases means giving the AI the right context, then judging whether its output holds up. Running executions and reading results teaches you to tell a real failure from noise. You finish with genuine test assets and the experience of producing them, which is the skill itself.

Q: Why is this certification based on real work instead of an exam?

Completing real testing work shows you can do the job, which is a stronger signal than a multiple choice test, both for you and for anyone who reads your badge.

Best practices to get certified

Learn first if it’s new to you

If a requirement covers something unfamiliar, take the short course behind it before diving in. You’ll pick it up faster and remember it.

Focus on the process

Each requirement is a real testing task, so aim for the outcome and make the calls it asks of you. That’s where the skill actually forms.

Play around with the AI

Experiment with the AI features and different prompts, and get a feel for when to trust its output and when to refine it.

Frequently asked questions

What is the True AI Tester certification?

It is a hands-on credential that proves you can create, run, and manage manual testing with AI on Katalon True Platform. Instead of sitting an exam, you build real test assets in the product and your progress is validated from your actual usage.

Who is it for?

Manual and QA testers who want to work faster and smarter with AI. If you test software by hand today and want to move into AI-assisted testing, this is your starting point. No coding required.

Why get certified at all?

Two honest reasons. First, the skill: AI is now part of how testing actually gets done, and this is structured practice at directing it well, something most testers haven’t formally built yet. Second, the proof: a credential tied to real work in the product shows an employer you can do the job, not just talk about it. If you’re a manual tester wondering how to stay valuable as the field shifts toward AI, this is a concrete, credible step forward.

What will I be able to do after earning it?

Turn requirements into reliable test cases with AI, run tests both autonomously and independently, investigate issues through live testing, and communicate quality clearly with AI-powered insights. In short, you will run an end-to-end manual testing workflow on True Platform with confidence.

Do I really build skills, or just complete tasks?

Every requirement is a genuine testing job that asks you to make decisions: which AI-generated cases to trust, how to design a case on your own, what a result is really telling you. The requirements are backed by courses, so you can learn any concept and apply it immediately. You come away with real experience, not a checklist.

How is this different from just watching a course?

Courses teach the concept. This certification makes you apply it in the real product and proves you did. That combination, learning plus doing, is what builds lasting skill and what makes the badge worth showing.

Is it free? Do I need a paid plan?

The certification is free to pursue. You will need access to Katalon True Platform to complete the hands-on requirements.

How long does it take?

It depends on your pace and how quickly you complete the requirements. There is no deadline, so you can work on your own schedule.

How long is it valid, and can I renew it?

Two years from the issue date. You can re-earn it any time by completing the current requirements again.

What comes next?

The True AI Tester is your first step. When you are ready to automate, centralize, and scale testing across True Platform and Katalon Studio, the True AI Expert certification is the next milestone.
