Abstract :
Conveying technical research into the classroom could play vital role in improving the instructor teaching, students understanding and knowledge. In this paper I try to investigate how programming projects and assignments can be prepared to amalgamate software testing objectives, and how computer science students can assess their assignment from testing perspective. In this paper I proposed designing and building web portal that includes several learning resources that helps in improving the testing education ideology called Web-based Testing-First Learning Assistant (WTLA).
