The TMMi Foundation developed the Test Maturity Model integration (TMMi); a model that provides a framework for improving the quality of test processes. TMMi has become the de facto standard for test process improvement. TMMi is independent of the software development methodology that is applied.

TMMi Model

TMMi is the world’s leading model for test process improvement. With TMMi, organizations can improve their test process and even become certified if they meet the requirements. The TMMi Foundation has set up a global assessment and certification program for test organizations with accredited TMMi assessors and lead assessors, and an international certification program for test professionals with recognized TMMi training providers.

The model offers organizations:

A competitive advantage for organizations that strive for higher and more sustainable product quality for the systems they develop and maintain.
Support in realizing more efficient and effective test processes.
Recognition from the market and their stakeholders for being a very mature and quality-driven organization.
Enables the testing knowledge of the ISTQB certified tester program to be applied in practice.

TMMi Carreer Path

A complete TMMi career path including certification has been defined with two streams:

Consultancy for those who provide advice and support for TMMi based test process improvement and lead test improvement projects.
Assessments for those who perform informal and formal TMMi assessments.
The figure below provides an overview of the career path.

TMMi assessments are performed to:

determine to what extent the organization’s test processes comply with TMMi best practices and provide suggestions for improvement
demonstrate to the market (customers and suppliers) that the organization’s test processes comply with the best practices defined by TMMi.
By means of formal TMMi assessments, an organization can be officially TMMI certified for a certain level if it meets the defined criteria.
