Boby Jose BSc MBA MBCS, Senior Test Manager, Sogeti UK, part of Capgemini and the author of Test Automation: A manager's guide A book not to ignore. This book complements ISTQB Certified Tester Foundation Level v4.0 syllabus very well, providing practical information and insight about different aspects of software testing. I especially like the 4th chapter that addresses the area of test analysis and design, as it uses so many interesting examples, and many of them with images too. Highly recommended.
Kimmo Hakala, President, Finnish Software Testing Board The fifth edition of Software Testing successfully informs the vital practice of software quality assurance and control. Providing information to help those beginning a career in software testing, the work also includes material for the more experienced practitioner and explanations of modern practices such as agile testing.
