Full Description
* Written by the founder and executive director of the Quality Assurance Institute, which sponsors the most widely accepted certification program for software testing* Software testing is a weak spot for most developers, and many have no system in place to find and correct defects quickly and efficiently* This comprehensive resource provides step-by-step guidelines, checklists, and templates for each testing activity, as well as a self-assessment that helps readers identify the sections of the book that respond to their individual needs* Covers the latest regulatory developments affecting software testing, including Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404, and provides guidelines for agile testing and testing for security, internal controls, and data warehouses* CD-ROM with all checklists and templates saves testers countless hours of developing their own test documentation Note: CD-ROM/DVD and other supplementary materials are not included as part of eBook file.
