Which certification is better? CSQA, CSTE or something else.


To make such decisions it is important to understand what each of these certifications mean, Understanding about these will help you make the right decision.

According to QAI 

"Acquiring the designation of Certified Software Quality Analyst (CSQA) indicates a professional level of competence in the principles and practices of quality assurance in the IT profession. CSQA certification is a highly respected attestation of skills in this critical area of information technology."

"The Certified Software Test Engineer (CSTE) Program is intended to establish standards for initial qualification and provide direction for the testing function through an aggressive educational program."

CSTE is more geared towards testing function. So if you are into Testing, testing automation tools and want to pursue your career in that area, CSTE is a very good certification to consider

If you are a project leader, Entry level PM, SQA or associated with Quality team in your organization then you already are doing lot of QA activities. 
CSQA will be the best for you.
