Essentials of Software Testing by Ralf Bierig Hardcover Book

Description: Essentials of Software Testing by Ralf Bierig, Stephen Brown, Joe Timoney, Edgar Galván Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description This accessible introduction demonstrates a range of testing techniques in the context of a single worked example that runs throughout. Students can easily see the strengths and limitations of progressively more complex approaches in theory and practice. Test automation and the process of testing are emphasised. Publisher Description Software testing can be regarded as an art, a craft, and a science. The practical, step-by-step approach presented in this book provides a bridge between these different viewpoints. A single worked example runs throughout, with consistent use of test automation. Each testing technique is introduced in the context of this example, helping students see its strengths and weaknesses. The technique is then explained in more detail, providing a deeper understanding of underlying principles. Finally the limitations of each technique are demonstrated by inserting faults, giving learners concrete examples of when each technique succeeds or fails in finding faults. Coverage includes black-box testing, white-box testing, random testing, unit testing, object-oriented testing, and application testing. The authors also emphasise the process of applying the techniques, covering the steps of analysis, test design, test implementation, and interpretation of results. The books web site has programming exercises and Java source code for all examples. Author Biography Dr Ralf Bierig is a Senior Lecturer at Maynooth University.
