Every student in school - from elementary to graduate - is familiar
with the angst of taking tests, hearing the dreaded line "Times up,
put your pencils down ," followed by the that feeling of regret as
you think "If only I hadn't spent so much time on that one question
" I'd like you to consider that writing tests for software is a bit
like taking tests in school. Both are tasks typically done in a
finite, allotted amount of time, so it's best to have a strategy
for using your time wisely, and knowing what techniques work well
(or don't ) on various problem types. Innovation and ways of
working smarter often arise from the "cross-pollination" of ideas
from multiple disciplines of software engineering. This book
presents a four-step strategy to budgeting time and innovative test
design based on the idea of use case levels of test combined with
high bang for the buck ideas from software testing, Quality
Function Deployment (QFD), software reliability's operational
profiles, Structured Analysis and Design's C.R.U.D. matrix, and
formal methods like model-based specification, Programming in Logic
(Prolog) and discrete math for testers. The goal of this
"cross-pollination" is to provide you the tester with a strategy
such that when you hear "Times up, put your pencils down ," you can
relax knowing you have used your time for writing tests for your
system or application wisely.
