Software applications have reached almost all the people helping them in their day-to-day activities. Hence the focus on the quality of the application is becoming more and more critical in this highly competitive world. Software quality assurance and testing have become full-fledged engineering. Developers or Testers need to effectively use quality assurance and testing techniques, processes and practices to identify and remove maximum if not all defects from the application at each development stage. Most other books try to include theories with an objective to impart as many aspects as possible targeting beginners, project leads, managers, and strategists all at the same time. Beginners find it difficult to understand and apply the concepts explained in those books as they are not explained in the manner they need to be implemented. This book sets the context by explaining the importance of Software Quality Assurance and Testing and continues to explain and demonstrate how these techniques and processes can be used at each development phase so that defects can be prevented to move to the next stage. It also includes various aspects such as Testing levels, Test project execution process, Defect Management, Test Automation, Risk based testing and non-functional testing such as Usability Testing, Performance & Load Testing, Security Testing etc. Explanations with real life examples make it easy to grasp and apply the learning immediately for beginners even without industrial experience. The reader will be able to effectively understand and apply the knowledge gained from the concepts and examples explained in this book in the projects. The content of this book is prepared based on the syllabus covered in a graduation program keeping in mind industry requirements. Hence this book can be very useful to many students aspiring to build a career in Software Testing.It can be useful for ISTQB (International Software Testing and Qualifications Board) foundation certification as well.
