What each level asks of you

A verifier marks against these descriptors. Level 1 is free and self-directed; Levels 2 and 3 use credits and a human verifier.

L1

You can write a test case that reproduces a bug somebody else reported.

Free

L2

You test a release against its requirements, report what you find so it can be reproduced, and say whether it blocks.

1 credit

L3

You set the test strategy for a product, including what is worth automating and what never will be.

2 credits

What counts as evidence at L2

A release you tested, the defects you found and the call you made on it.

Evidence has to be work you did. It is attached to the request and read by the verifier — it is never published.
