Science-based (Software) Test Planning – Fewer Tests, Better Coverage 2011
conferences > Education, Training conferences > Science-based (Software) Test Planning – Fewer Tests, Better Coverage
17 November, 2011
Palm Beach FL , USA
This Software Testing training will review a testing method based on 'Design of Experiments' to greatly reduce redundant test cases and ensure that maximum number of defects are found.
According to industry benchmark data an average project that costs in the area of $1,000,000 will require something like 4,000 test cases. Roughly 20% of those cases are duplications of other tests – they reveal nothing new about the quality of the application.
Areas Covered in the Seminar:
- Background: “Design of Experiments”.
- Software Testing as an “Experiment”.
- What Are “Combinatorial” Interactions ? Why Do They Matter?
- The Business Case for Combinatorial Testing.
- Case Study: Amazon Checkout.
- Limitation and Caveats.
- References.
