Mastering Storage Testing is a comprehensive, industry-focused course designed for QA engineers, system testers, and IT professionals who want to build strong expertise in validating storage systems. As businesses rely heavily on data, ensuring storage devices and infrastructures are fast, reliable, and failure-resistant has become critical. This course takes you from foundational concepts to advanced hands-on testing methodologies used in enterprise environments.

You will begin with an introduction to the architecture of storage systems—covering HDDs, SSDs, hybrid drives, RAID arrays, tape libraries, SAN/NAS environments, and cloud-based storage. As you progress, you will learn how data flows through controllers, caching layers, file systems, and network fabrics, giving you a clear understanding of testing points and potential bottlenecks.

The course provides detailed training on various testing types, including performance testing (IOPS, throughput, latency), reliability and endurance testing, stress and soak testing, data integrity validation, failover and recovery testing, and security testing. You will work with essential tools like FIO, Vdbench, IOmeter, Wireshark, sysbench, and other industry-standard utilities to simulate real-world workloads.

In addition, the course covers automation strategies for storage testing using Python, Bash scripts, Jenkins pipelines, and monitoring tools. You will also explore best practices for test planning, creating test matrices, analyzing logs, interpreting performance metrics, and generating professional QA reports.

By the end of this course, you will gain the capability to confidently test various storage systems used in enterprises, ensuring they meet required performance, stability, and reliability standards. This training will prepare you for roles such as Storage QA Engineer, Performance Tester, SDET for Storage, and Infrastructure Quality Specialist.
