Seminar Abstract: 

Software testing is a key part of any software product development process.  But, how early the testing would have to start, how often should the testing take place, how much testing effort should be dedicated within the development budget but sticking with requirements defined and still keeping a good product quality, and what types of testing are suitable for a product, all of these remain very challenge to many testers in different industry products.  This presentation will show the fundamental solutions to these testing challenges. Abundant with eighteen-year diversified industrial testing experience in various products, the speaker will share her experience, lessons learned, and testing process improvements. She will also present the wisdom of software testing – rule of thumb of productive and effective testing and delivery of software product with a guaranteed quality.
