Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

There are a lot of books around covering functional testing techniques, but relatively few cover both functional and technical testing. This book will fill that gap. Authors Graham Bath and Judy McKay are core members of the ISTQB Working Party that created the new advanced level syllabus, which will be rolled out worldwide this year. This book brings both functional and technical aspects of testing into a coherent whole, which will benefit not only test analyst/engineers but also test managers. Based on the 'Certified Tester' Advanced-Level syllabus issued by the ISTQB in 2007, this book covers everything you will need to know to successfully sit the examinations for Test Analyst and Technical Test Analyst. For those planning to take one or both of these exams, this book provides a solid base for preparation and clearly indicates which sections apply to which specific examination.
