About the Book

This pragmatic guide provides a testing framework that can be used by all members of staff involved in software development and testing within an organisation to improve the quality and to reduce timescales, effort, and cost. This book covers all aspects of testing, as well as software developed or modified in-house, the modification or extension of existing legacy software systems, as well as software developed on behalf of an organisation by a third party. This framework can be customised to match the particular testing requirements of any particular organisation, and a series of real-world case studies are provided to illustrate how this can be achieved. The book also provides a comprehensive set of standard testing document templates, proformas, and checklists for the reader to use in their testing projects. These items are provided electronically, which allows the reader to customised them to match the particular requirements of their business.

Review :
'The third part consists of an extensive set of test checklists, templates and proformas, ready to use or to tailor to your specific requirements. To have these all in one place and already standardised is alone worth the price of the book ... covers all aspects of testing for both in-house and third-party developed software. I heartily recommend that any test professional looking for an easier life gets a copy of this book. I believe that even the most hardened of us would gain from reading it.' Professional Tester 'Every tester should have a copy.' Geoff Thompson 'When asked for my opinion about software testing I referred naturally to Testing IT. Imagine a light being switched on! Almost overnight everyone in the organisation was walking around with versions of the V-lifecycle ... has made a difference to two organisations that were lost in a testing strategy wilderness.' Martin Allen, Software Team Leader 'An off-the-shelf set of procedures, complete with forms and checklists, for much less than the price of a day's work, must be a bargain ... The forms are a joy to anyone in quality assurance ... Overall this is a good started on procedures for someone who understand testing.' Brian Peaker, Computer Bulletin '... this is one of the most valuable books I have in my collection. I will certainly refer to it regularly and would recommend that both new and 'old lag' testers have a copy close at hand. It would give any organization a kick-start in developing an effective test process.' Geoff Thompson, Software Testing, Verification and Reliability
