  • Effective Software Testing
    Mind, 2002
    Co-Authors: Elfriede Dusting
    Abstract:

    Effective Software Testingexplores fifty critically important best practices, pitfalls, and solutions. Gleaned from the author's extensive practical experience, these concrete items will enable quality assurance professionals and test managers to immediately enhance their understanding and skills, avoid costly mistakes, and implement a state-of-the-art testing program. This book places special emphasis on the integration of testing into all phases of the software development life cycle--from requirements definition to design and final coding. The fifty lessons provided here focus on the key aspects of software testing: test planning, design, documentation, execution, managing the testing team, unit testing, automated testing, nonfunctional testing, and more. You will learn to: Base testing efforts on a prioritized feature Schedule Estimate test preparation and execution Define the testing team roles and responsibilities Design test procedures as soon as requirements are available Derive effective test cases from requirements Avoid constraints and detailed data elements in test procedures Make unit-test execution part of the build process Use logging to increase system testability Test automated test tools on an application prototype Automate regression tests whenever possible Avoid sole reliance on capture/playback Conduct performance testing with production-sized databases Tailor usability tests to the intended audience Isolate the test environment from the development environment Implement a defect tracking life cycle Throughout the book, numerous real-world case studies and concrete examples illustrate the successful application of these important principles and techniques. Effective Software Testingprovides ready access to the expertise and advice of one of the world's foremost software quality and testing authorities. 0201794292B12032002

  • cost and Schedule Estimate risk analysis for transportation infrastructures
    Volume 13: New Developments in Simulation Methods and Software for Engineering Applications; Safety Engineering Risk Analysis and Reliability Methods;, 2009
    Co-Authors: Ovidiu Cretu
    Abstract:

    This paper presents the Risk-Based Estimate Self-Modeling (RBES) which eliminates the need of specialized software by allowing a regular excel user to develop an integrated cost and Schedule Estimate with limited knowledge of risk analysis. The RBES has the flexibility of entering: • The baseline project cost and Schedule along with the different degrees of uncertainty associated with them. • Simple independent risks with their cost and duration components. • Complex risks which are dependent of each other and/or correlated. The RBES integrates project cost and Schedule when the project delivery goes as planned with up to 24 risks events. Each risk may have two components (cost, and Schedule) and the RBES may compute the effect of risk dependency and risk correlation with respect to project cost and Schedule. The outcome of the RBES consists of graphs and tables that present the project cost in current year dollars, and year of expenditure dollars plus the advertisement date, and the end construction date. Additionally, the RBES generates the following summary information: A tornado diagram of the most significant cost and Schedule risks, A risk matrix for each of the 24 risks; and a risk map in order to help the management to quickly assess all project risks so that they may initiate the appropriate risk response actions.Copyright © 2009 by ASME
