The 'London Software Craftsmanship Community' (LSCC) was founded in 2010 and is today the largest and most active Software Craftsmanship community in the world, with more than 5000 craftspeople. In 2014, Sandro Mancuso, one of its co-founders, published a book The Software Craftsman: Professionalism, Pragmatism, Pride. It brought the software ...
ISO/IEC/IEEE 29119 Software and systems engineering -- Software testing [1] is a series of five international standards for software testing.First developed in 2007 [2] and released in 2013, the standard "defines vocabulary, processes, documentation, techniques, and a process assessment model for testing that can be used within any software development lifecycle."
Software testing can provide objective, independent information about the quality of software and the risk of its failure to a user or sponsor. [1] Software testing can determine the correctness of software for specific scenarios but cannot determine correctness for all scenarios. [2] [3] It cannot find all bugs.
This article discusses a set of tactics useful in software testing.It is intended as a comprehensive list of tactical approaches to software quality assurance (more widely colloquially known as quality assurance (traditionally called by the acronym "QA")) and general application of the test method (usually just called "testing" or sometimes "developer testing").
Static and dynamic testing approach may also be used. Dynamic testing involves running the software. Static testing includes verifying requirements, syntax of code and any other activities that do not include actually running the code of the program. Testing can be further divided into functional and non-functional testing. In functional ...

Smoke testing is also done by testers before accepting a build for further testing. Microsoft claims that after code reviews, "smoke testing is the most cost-effective method for identifying and fixing defects in software". [10] One can perform smoke tests either manually or using an automated tool. In the case of automated tools, the process ...
The standard formed part of the training syllabus of the ISEB Foundation and Practitioner Certificates in Software Testing promoted by the British Computer Society. ISTQB, following the formation of its own syllabus based on ISEB's and Germany's ASQF syllabi, also adopted IEEE 829 as the reference standard for software and system test documentation.
