Free Books for Learning Software Testing and QA (Quality Assurance) in Waterfall Development
I’d like to introduce free books for learning software testing and QA (Quality Assurance) in waterfall development.
Background: Wanting to Learn About Waterfall Development, Software Testing, and QA
I needed to quickly learn about waterfall development, software testing, and QA, so I read the following two freely available books.
JUAS "User Enterprise Software Metrics = Essential Handbook =" Published: February 2014
While you can read either book first, I recommend starting with this one as it’s only 32 pages, giving you a sense of accomplishment. The methods for calculating quantitative metrics seemed particularly useful when you need to produce numerical indicators.
- JUAS Japan Users Association of Information Systems
- PDF: User Enterprise Software Metrics = Essential Handbook =
IPA "Software Test Estimation Guidebook" Published: September 2008
A personal learning point for me was discovering the W-model in addition to the V-model.
- SEC BOOKS: Software Test Estimation Guidebook | Archive | IPA Information-technology Promotion Agency
- PDF: Software Test Estimation Guidebook
That’s all from the Gemba, where I quickly learned about software testing and QA in waterfall development.
