ISQI ISTQB Certified Tester Foundation Level: Common Questions From Candidates

What is the ISQI ISTQB Certified Tester Foundation Level certification exam?

The ISQI ISTQB Certified Tester Foundation Level exam (code: CTFL-001) is the official ISQI exam that leads to the ISQI Certifications certification. It sits at the Foundation level of the ISQI certification track. It is also connected with related credentials such as ISTQB Advanced Level Test Analyst, ISTQB Advanced Level Technical Test Analyst, ISTQB Advanced Level Test Manager, ISTQB Certified Tester Agile Tester (CTFL-AT). Passing it proves to employers that your skills have been validated by ISQI itself, which is why the CTFL-001 credential keeps showing up in job postings.

How many questions are in the CTFL-001 exam, and how long does it take?

The ISQI ISTQB Certified Tester Foundation Level exam gives you 60 (or 75 with additional time for non-native language) to work through 40. Pacing matters more than most candidates expect, so before exam day, run at least one full timed session in the Dumpkiller test engine to learn how long you can afford per question. If an item stalls you, flag it and move on — coming back later beats burning five minutes on a single question.

The passing score for the ISQI ISTQB Certified Tester Foundation Level exam is 65% (26 out of 40), and the official registration fee is Varies by Member Board / Provider (typically between ~USD 100–250; set by local boards/providers). Remember that a failed attempt means paying that fee in full again, so a timed self-assessment with Dumpkiller practice questions about a week before your exam date is a cheap way to confirm you are scoring comfortably above 65% (26 out of 40).
