About this Book

The Foundations in Software Testing workbook supports students and self-studiers who want a context-driven introduction to black box software testing. Used in parallel with the instructional materials provided at the Center for Software Testing Education and Research (testingeducation.org/BBST), readers will learn basic testing terminology and consider fundamental challenges in software testing. These challenges include:

• the mission of testing,
• the oracle problem,
• the measurement problem, and
• the impossibility of complete testing.
