A hands-on guide to testing techniques that deliver reliable software and systems Testing even a simple system can quickly turn into a potentially infinite task. Faced with tight costs and schedules, testers need to have a toolkit of practical techniques combined with hands-on experience and the right strategies in order to complete a successful project. World-renowned testing expert Rex Black provides you with the proven methods and concepts that test professionals must know. He presents you with the fundamental techniques for testing and clearly shows you how to select and apply successful strategies to test a system with budget and time constraints. Black begins by discussing the goals and tactics of effective and efficient testing. Next, he lays the foundation of his technique for risk-based testing, explaining how to analyze, prioritize, and document risks to the quality of the system using both informal and formal techniques. He then clearly describes how to design, develop, and, ultimately, document various kinds of tests. Because this is a hands-on activity, Black includes realistic, life-sized exercises that illustrate all of the major test techniques with detailed solutions.

Software Testing Techniques, 2nd Edition is the first book-length work that explicitly addresses the idea that design for testability is as important as testing itself not just by saying that testability is a desirable goal, but by showing the reader how it to do it. Every chapter has testability guidelines that illustrate how the technique discussed in the chapter can be used to make software more easily tested and therefore more reliable and maintainable. Application of all techniques to unit, integration, maintenance, and system testing are discussed throughout this book.As a self-study text, as a classroom text, as a working reference, it is a book that no programmer, independent software tester, software engineer, testing theorist, system designer, or software project manager can be without.

Softwaretests stellen eine kritische Phase in der Softwareentwicklung dar. Jetzt zeigt sich, ob das Programm die entsprechenden Anforderungen erfüllt und sich auch keine Programmierungsfehler eingeschlichen haben. Doch wie bei allen Phasen im Software-Entwicklungsprozess gibt es auch hier eine Reihe möglicher Fallstricke, die die Entdeckung von Programmfehlern vereiteln können. Deshalb brauchen Softwaretester ein Handbuch, das alle Tipps, Tricks und die häufigsten Fehlerquellen genau auflistet und erläutert, damit mögliche Testfehler von vornherein vermieden werden können. Ein solches Handbuch ersetzt gut und gerne jahr(zehnt)elange Erfahrung und erspart dem Tester frustrierende und langwierige Trial-und-Error-Prozeduren. Chem Kaner und James Bach sind zwei der international führenden Experten auf dem Gebiet des Software Testing. Sie schöpfen hier aus ihrer insgesamt 30-jährigen Erfahrung. Die einzelnen Lektionen sind nach Themenbereichen gegliedert, wie z.B. Testdesign, Test Management, Teststrategien und Fehleranalyse. Jede Lektion enthält eine Behauptung und eine Erklärung sowie ein Beispiel des entsprechenden Testproblems. "Lessons Learned in Software Testing" ist ein unverzichtbarer Begleiter für jeden Software Tester.

A groundbreaking, example driven, and practical oriented approach to software testing techniques and principles. This book offers a unique approach to learning software application testing, appropriate for students in computer sciences and related fields, quality engineers and software developers.In this book, software test cases are formally defined, software testing techniques are presented, and crucial strategies, principles, and practices one can follow in real life scenarios are discussed. The author tries to present simple and clear concepts, and then systematically advance from basic concepts to testing techniques and principles with abundant examples in order to help the readers to understand the theories, techniques, and principles easily. The common techniques that are most useful in practice based on industry experiences are discussed in this book. The main techniques discussed extensively are equivalence partitions, combinatorial testing, decision table testing, and various structural testing techniques. Basic testing principles and regression testing are covered in part 3 of the book, with two case studies to apply some of the basic techniques and principles discussed in the book. Performance testing is also covered in great details with three real life case studies. The author also defined test cases and types of testing in a new original and fundamental way which are never published anywhere else. This book is targeted mainly to software quality engineers but should be valuable to software developers and other IT personals. The book is written in a textbook style, and there are also numerous exercise problems at the end of most chapters, especially the ones on testing techniques, and it's designed to be used as a reference or a textbook to students who are taking classes in software testing related subjects.
