Book Overview

A software testing survival guide for those who work in Internet time With Internet applications spreading like wildfire, the field of software testing is increasingly challenged by the brave new networked world of e-business. This book brings you up to speed on the technologies, testing concepts, and tools you'll need to run e-business applications on the Web. Written by Hung Nguyen, a coauthor of the bestselling software testing book of all time, Testing Computer Software, this new guide takes you to the next level, helping you apply your existing skills to the testing of B2B (Business-to-Business), B2C (Business-to-Consumer), and internal Web-based applications. You'll learn how to test transactions across networks, explore complex systems for errors, and work efficiently with the many components at play--from servers to browsers to protocols. Most importantly, you'll get detailed instructions on how to carry out specific test types along with case studies and error examples for each test. Software testers, test leads and test managers, QA analysts and managers, and IT managers and staff will find this an invaluable resource for their testing projects. With an emphasis on achievable goals and necessary rather than nice-to-have features, Testing Applications on the Web provides: An analysis of the Web-application model and the difference between Web testing and traditional testing A tutorial on the methodology and techniques for networking technologies and component-based testing Strategies for test planning, test case designing, and error analysis on the Web Effective real-world practices for UI (User Interface) tests, security tests, installation tests, load and stress tests, database tests, and more A survey of commercial tools and a sampling of proven test matrices and templates

Very good book

Very good book, I would totaly recommend it for everybody who wants to become a good QA professional.

Excellent Book

This book is excellent for learning about "testing applications on the web". Delivery was made on time and no complains at all regarding the sender.

Good book to get started

I am a software developer that had to create an automated performance web testing system. This book (along with two others) provided my with a good overview on best practices for creating my "Internet Macros" for performance web testing.

Testing Applications on the Web

Great book - everything you need to know about web testing

Major rewrite of the best web testing book

This is more than a minor update of the first edition of this highly regarded book - it's a major rewrite with added material on mobile web testing. As in the earlier book, this one clearly shows the differences between traditional testing and web testing, which will provide QA professionals who are moving from older environments into web-based systems an orientation and direction. For new QA professionals the chapters on software testing basics, networking and web application components provide a solid foundation. The chapter on mobile web application platforms is unique to this book, and adds true value. Other core material includes test planning, and a sample application and test plan to add realistic scenarios to the material.Web-specific test advice encompasses UI, functional, server-side, database, help, installation, compatibility, security and performance testing. These cover all facets of the test process and associated procedures in a web-centric environment. Additional chapters include using test scripts, testing mobile web applications, and web testing tools.While the core content is on the mark and accurate, the appendices are as invaluable. These include a test plan template, weekly status report template, error analysis checklist (with error examples), UI test-case design guidelines (common keyboard navigation/shortcut matrix and mouse action matrix web), test-case design guideline: input boundary and validation matrix, display compatibility test matrix, and browser/OS configuration matrix.If you test web systems this is the most complete book you can read, and it is destined to attain the same 'classic' status as the first edition.
