About the Software QA and Testing Resource Center
and the author:
This web site is oriented to:
- experienced software QA and testing engineers who need some quick convenient information
- those new to testing and software QA
- software developers who need to do some testing or test automation
- those hired as either testers or QA personnel, but who end up performing both testing and QA roles (a common situation)
- anyone who has an interest in software development processes
The author has no particular justification for his authorship of this web site other than:
- real-world software testing, test automation, QA, management, and development experience in a wide variety of software development organizations ranging from small to large, and chaotic to highly structured.
- project, contract, consulting experience with a wide variety of organizations
- experience as a speaker at numerous software QA and testing conferences in the U.S. and Europe
- a willingness to do the work of developing the site
- a willingness to express his (admittedly biased) ideas
- a need to collect a variety of useful QA and testing information in one organized and convenient place, since his collection of yellow sticky notes has gotten out of hand
- a willingness to consider additions/corrections/suggestions
