Good Software Testing Books
Often I am asked this question about books on software testing and usually my recommendation has been same over years. I am not truly a great fan of reading software testing books to understand this art and probably other practitioners might agree, for testing is learnt over time and rather perfected over time but I am a great fan of reading in general. Its not really as simple as maths (or as difficult as some would like to incorrectly put it) which can be explained and contained with in predictable results out of time tested formulas, its more of a evolution which happens over time.
Anyway, coming back to basic question on what are the good books on software testing. My suggestion would limit to three books viz.
- 1. Roger Pressman’s book on software engineering
- 2. Cem Kaner’s “Testing Computer Software”
- 3. Rex Blacks’ “Critical Testing Processes”
