Testing for non-technical people This book provides an excellent insight into the topic of software testing. The subject is now of interest to a wide business audience, not just software engineers, and they are well served by this book. The writing is fluent and lucid and allows those new to the topic to gain a thorough understanding.Both the theoretical and practical aspects are covered, and reinforced with examples. | ||
Everything you need to know about testing non-Windows S.W. I found this a super book for both the novice software tester and the expert. It offers descriptions of the different types of testing, table of contents for test plans and all other documentation needed for testing. The only problem with this book (second edition) is that it does not include Windows software testing - a whole different "kettle of fish"! If you want to do a thorough job of testing your FORTRAN or C code this is a must! | ||
