To become eligible for Functional Regression Testing opportunities in paid workspaces on the Testlio platform, you need to earn the Functional Regression Testing Certification.
Earning the Functional Regression Testing Certification involves participating in a test run where you need to find issues in a school management app called Simika. This process is designed to evaluate your testing capabilities and also provide you with the opportunity to go through the same experience you would go through in real client workspaces and set expectations accordingly.
With this certification, you show that you:
Are familiar with the Testlio platform.
Follow instructions in a workspace & the scope of a given run.

Important Information
Workspace Invitations
Not all workspaces require the Functional Regression Testing Certification. If you receive an invitation to a workspace that does not require this certification, you are free to accept it and will be compensated for your work.
Rejecting a Simika Run Invitation
If you need to reject the Simika run invitation, you need to wait around 3-4 days to be able to sign up again. You will be notified via email once the invite rejection is processed and you can then choose a new time slot to earn the certification.
Executing a Run
You need to download the build on your smartphone. The rest of the run can only be executed on a desktop as the Testlio platform is not optimized for mobile.
