The CSQE exam, officially titled Certified Software Quality EngineerExam, is the ASQ exam you pass to earn the Certified Software Quality Engineer certification, a credential at the Professional level. Passing it confirms the skills defined in the official exam outline, and it is associated with related credentials such as Certified Quality Engineer (CQE), Certified Quality Auditor (CQA), Certified Reliability Engineer (CRE).

The CSQE exam includes 160-175 questions and gives you 240-270 to finish them. That is a tight pace per question, so get used to reading each stem once, flagging anything uncertain, and moving on rather than getting stuck. Running timed practice tests in the Fast2test desktop or online test engine is the most reliable way to build that rhythm before exam day.

The passing score for the CSQE exam is 550 out of 750 scaled score, and the official registration fee is USD 450 (ASQ Members), USD 550 (Non-Members), USD 350 (Retake). Keep in mind that a failed attempt means paying USD 450 (ASQ Members), USD 550 (Non-Members), USD 350 (Retake) again in full to retake it, so book your slot only when your scores on Fast2test practice tests sit consistently above the passing line.

ASQ lists the following prerequisites or eligibility notes for the CSQE exam: 8 years of relevant work experience; minimum 3 years in decision-making role; education can substitute up to 5 years of experience.
