KA Description of Software Testing
نویسنده
چکیده
READ ME This is Version 0.5 of the Software Testing KA Description. I have done my best to provide -within the close deadlinea preliminary document according to the specifications. However, I am heavily relying on the feedback from the first review round to improve this draft document, as I am fully aware that it still needs more work than that I could realistically put on it. Above all, some of the topics certainly need more or better reference material: I have left some reference fields annotated with "???", for topics I would like to include, but for which I have not yet been able to find adequate reference material. On the other side, the number of references is already higher than the suggested size of 15. In this regard, note that by referencing books or survey articles that report on them, I have omitted to include some famous papers in the testing literature, in order to reduce the size of references list. For these matters, I warmly ask reviewers to give suggestions for addition, replacement and reduction of references. Some other questions/comments are given within [[ ]].
