Fundamentals of Software Testing
About this book
Software testing has greatly evolved since the first edition of this book in 2011. Testers are now required to work in "agile" teams and focus on automating test cases. It has thus been necessary to update this work, in order to provide fundamental knowledge that testers should have to be effective and efficient in today's world.
This book describes the fundamental aspects of testing in the different lifecycles, and how to implement and benefit from reviews and static analysis. Multiple other techniques are approached, such as equivalence partitioning, boundary value analysis, use case testing, decision tables and state transitions.
This second edition also covers test management, test progress monitoring and incident management, in order to ensure that the testing information is correctly provided to the stakeholders.
This book provides detailed course-study material for the 2023 version of the ISTQB Foundation level syllabus, including sample questions to help prepare for exams.
