The Complete Software Tester is a resource you’ll want to keep with you throughout your software testing career!
Why I Wrote This Book: I discovered my love for software testing in 2009 when, after being laid off from my job as a support person for a small tech start-up, I took a job as a quality assurance intern at another company. On my first day there, I realized that software testing was something I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I wanted to learn everything I could about software testing, but I found very few books that could teach me. I wound up learning through trial and error, reading blog posts, and talking with my co-workers. Today there are some excellent books about specific areas of software testing, such as exploratory testing, Agile testing, and test automation, but I ’ m not aware of any book that aims to be a complete reference on testing. I started blogging about testing in 2012, and my occasional posts turned into weekly posts in 2017. It occurred to me that these posts could serve as the foundation for a comprehensive book on testing, and The Complete Software Tester was born.
Who This Book Is For: This book is for anyone who cares about the quality of software. I wrote it with new software testers in mind; this is the book I wish I could have read when I was first starting out. You ’ ll learn what to think about when manually testing an application, how web applications work, and how to create a test plan. Veteran testers will also find helpful information in this book. Manual testers who want to start writing test automation will learn good coding practices and automation basics. Experienced testers will be able to fill gaps in their skill sets by learning about performance testing, security testing, mobile testing, and accessibility testing. Finally, software developers who want to learn more about the practice of testing can read about techniques that will help them think like a tester. Testing and development are two very different skills, and developers who take the time to learn what to test will discover that they are now writing better code.
