详细说明： This book is written for: • Testers who want to become test managers and need to get a new perspective on all the things they already know. • Test managers who want answers to some very pressing questions all in one place. • Project managers who want to know what they should expect from their test team, what they can do with it, and what it will mean. • Quality assurance staff who want to know what to look for in a testing environment and how to measure it when they find it. • Lecturers who realize that test management is anothe r critical role which can mean the difference between success and failure on a project, and which might form the basis of a new course. • Investment analysts who want to know what might go wrong with their investments, why, and how to stop it. • Project office staff who want to know how to integrate the information they get from the test team. • Auditors fed up with being pilloried by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and worried that something about Sarbanes–Oxley might have escaped them. It is intended to pull together a lot of issues to give a strategic, risk-based management view of testing and how it relates to every stakeholder involved. In particular it is focused on lifting readers above the testing battlefield, concerned with the what and how of bug finding but also looking at the why. The book’s structure is as follows: • The Introduction and Chapter 2 set out the issues. The issues are simple and so are the questions underlying them. The answers to those questions must be equally simple to be useful. Getting the answers isn’t simple and that’s why a lot of this book is devoted to how the test manager gets answers and interprets them. • Chapter 3 begins the discussion of risk, which carries on throughout the book. • Chapter 4 tells you how to plan and manage tests, and discusses possible starting points. • Chapter 5 looks at web testing. • Chapter 6 puts testing into the context of several life-cycle models. • Chapter 7 and Chapter 8 look at the things you must do and have ready for use, your tools, processes, and support systems, your eyes and ears, the kinds of testing you may need to do, and the documents you need to work with. • Chapter 9 examines the test team in its context, who they interact with, how, and why. • Chapter 10 looks at the problems of outsourcing, third-party service provisions, and how to accept a release. • Chapter 11 through Chapter 13 look at test techniques in as much detail as you will need to know, and show how they get you the answers you need. • Chapter 14 covers unit testing and why it will save you time and money by reducing risk during system testing. • Chapter 15 through Chapter 17 go into system, performance, and usability testing. • Chapter 18 deals with the issues needing to be backed by metrics. Metrics are only useful if they answer a question. I have tried to put all the basic questions in and give you worked examples to show how to get the answers. I’ve put in the equations to show the basis, but where things have got complex I have put some of the equations in Excel spreadsheet format. • Appendix A contains examples of reports and plans as well as case studies. • Appendix B contains checklists with questions you need answers to in more detail. Although this book is not concerned with reviews, inspections, or audits, these may prove useful in either. • Appendix C contains approaches to categorizing bugs. • Appendix D lists tools. • References, a glossary, and the index are located at the back of the book. Managing testing is like managing a battle. Part of the time you need to fight the battle and part of the time you need to be above the battle, thinking. Thinking above the battle requires that you ask questions. If you don’t ask the right questions, you will never get the answers. The answers must help you and the test team do something. At the back of my head I hear the voice of an awkward Highland-Scottish project manager asking, “Aye, but what does it buy me?” It’s a good question and this is an answer. ...展开收缩
