I like that the book is very readable with a nice touch of humor scattered throughout the book. The issue is that the book itself is very old by now. As a programmer, I wanted to expose myself to testing techniques in the context of project management, but currently familiar terminologies are not covered; there is no mention of agile, test-driven development, for example.

This could be because the target readers are not pr For a broad overview of testing techniques, the book may still be useful. This could be because the target readers are not programmers. I am neither a tester nor someone who works in QA and cannot speak from the perspective of those in the know. For what it covers, the materials are structured well and covered in sufficient detail.

I obviously recommend this book. It is like a Bible for testers. There are only concrete things, not excessive writing, so it can be used either as a handbook for everyday task or as one-time reading.

Old, but still good. I've never seen anything better. It's "classics", describing testing tecniques, that're still in use. Mar 07, Ffakih08 added it Shelves: qa-stuff.
