The worst of the new chapters is the one on agile development, which spends a great deal of time repetitively telling us what agile development is, but very little discussing its impact on testing and barely managing to slip in the JUnit tool.
The chapter on web application testing devotes some time to the classic three-tier architecture presentation, business and data levels and goes on to provide a brief and sometimes repetitive overview of testing issues for the three levels.
The chapter on mobile application testing provides a good introduction to the topic but falls into the temptation, as in the chapter on usability, of mentioning so many topics, that the reader is left feeling helpless in the face of so many shadowy hinted-at complexities. Some of these new chapters have been edited rather carelessly -there is, for example a typo "donstraints" instead of "constraints" and a spelling mistake "shear" for "sheer" in just one page page and they are not as tightly written as the best of Myers.
Even twenty years ago, I would have recommended this book without hesitation, now I am not so sure. Some readers will still enjoy the key insights from both old and new chapters, others will simply yawn and pass them by. I wavered between giving the book three or four stars, but Sandler and Badgett deserve recognition for bravery and Myers still has my gratitude for introducing me to testing, so four it is.
Jan 29, Drew rated it liked it Shelves: programming. Three stars is pretty good for a book about software testing, since it is the most boring thing in the world. It hooked me with an early test of my own skills which I know are bad, but I didn't realize they were THAT bad and I am pretty sure I at least read the whole thing.
Good general ideas about how to divide up testing in a way that has strong coverage without infinite tests, but it didn't do anything to inspire me to test more.

Testing is a destructive, even sadistic, process, which explains why most people find it difficult.
When you find an error in a section on a program, the probability of the existence of another error in that same section is higher than if you hadn't already found on error errors tend to cluster. The Psychology and Economics of Software Testing Jan 01, Alex Trimm rated it it was ok Shelves: software-testing.
Gave up after they started explaining how to draw horendously complicate diagrams in order to derive test cases in a large test space. Either the work I've done doesn't require the same level of testing stringency as others or it was just bad. Either way, it just wasn't very applicable at present. Good coverage of terminology in basic black-box and white-box testing though. Jan 09, Coltin rated it it was ok.
I read this cover to cover and I sadly am walking away with very little. This book feels extremely dated. Especially the section on mobile testing. It's very naive and didn't provide any useful information. Feb 21, Iuliia rated it liked it. This book was recommended to me by my friend whose expertise I trust but in the end, I was disappointed. I read second, not the latest, edition, and thought that it would not matter because the book contains timeless theory that I'll be able to apply today.
But my expectations were wrong and I was able to take away very little. Jul 22, Laura rated it really liked it Shelves: professional. A good book for beginners as it states principles and methods of work. It is not enough if you want to realy learn about software testing, but it's a very good starting point.
It is also a nice reminder for testers with some experience in the field. This book is a very good introductory book about Software testing. I found Chapter 4 on Test-Case design the most informative.
Dec 30, Christopher Heckman rated it really liked it. I just got done reading the first edition. Do you have a test case where the input is not numeric? Do you have a test case where the sum of two numbers results in arithmetic overflow? Jul 02, Kartic K is currently reading it. Came as a recommendation from a colleague- chapter 1 on its own it astounding. Jun 16, Anton rated it liked it. When I was readling the book I thought that it is very boring, that there are too few specific testing techniques I wanted to learn about.
The only chapter that really grabbed my attention was the chapter about different types of testing unit, integration, system and acceptance.
Other chapters were not very informative and interesting for me. Now, having the book read and looking over what I have read, I think that my original expectations were too high and were in the wrong direction. There ar When I was readling the book I thought that it is very boring, that there are too few specific testing techniques I wanted to learn about.
There are no specific solutions to test software. It has special coverage on Agile Testing Methodology - so vital to deliver quality product. It comprehensively brings forth all aspects of Agile Testing, along with Illustrative examples. It is meant both for the techies and for the non-techies. Developers, designers, projects leads, projects managers would find it useful, besides testers and developers of test automation.
About the Author Rajnikant Puranik, has software experience of over 25 Years. It is during the development of these products that he practically realised the criticality of proper testing and enlightened testing strategy to delivery of successful software products.
This also led him to build and integrate test-automation and automated regression testing within the products. A guide to the various tools, techniques, and methods available for automated testing of software under development. Using case studies of successful industry implementations, the book describes incorporation of automated testing into the development process.
In particular, the authors focus on the Automated Test Lifecycle Methodology, a structured process for designing and executing testing that parallels the Rapid Application Development methodology commonly used.
