Synopsis:

Effective Software Testing is a hands-on guide to creating high quality tests, from your first line of code through pre-delivery checks. It's full of techniques drawn from proven research in software engineering. You'll learn to efficiently engineer tests specifically for your software and end reliance on generic testing practices that may be right for every project. Each chapter puts a new technique into practice with source code samples, real-world tradeoffs, and answers to the common questions developers pose about testing. You'll learn how to scrutinize your requirements for potential tests, generate tests from your code structure, and engineer rigorous suites of unit, integration, and system tests.

Go beyond unit tests! Great software testing makes the entire development process more efficient, from understanding your code before you write it to catching bugs in tricky corner cases.Effective Software Testing teaches you a systematic approach to software testing. You'll master easy-to-apply techniques to create strong test suites that are specifically engineered for your code. Following real-world use cases and detailed code samples, you'll soon be engineering tests that find the bugs hiding in edge cases and the parts of code you would never think of testing! Along the way, you'll develop an intuition for testing that can save years of learning by trial and error.
