Several certification programs exist to support the professional aspirations of software testers and quality assurance
specialists. No certification currently offered actually requires the applicant to demonstrate the ability to test software. No
certification is based on a widely accepted body of knowledge. No certification board decertifies individuals.[verification needed][citation needed] This has
led some to declare that the testing field is not ready for certification http://www.testingeducation.org/general/nsf_grant.pdf - . Certification itself
cannot measure an individual's productivity, their skill, or practical knowledge, and cannot guarantee their competence, or
professionalism as a tester
