Book Description
Software leaders, directors, and managers of all types need to know about software testing. It can be a tough climb up the mountain of technical jargon. Engineers seem to be speaking a language all their own sometimes. Most books on testing are deep in the weeds with technical terms and techniques that simply aren’t applicable even to technical managers.
This book provides a high-level perspective on broad topics in a friendly, easy-to-absorb style. Get started and up to speed quickly with immediately useful, actionable guidance. Guidance on team structure, best practices and even common pitfalls will save you time and money, while automation and code reuse will provide exponential value.
There’s a gap of knowledge between engineers and their managers; they are almost speaking different languages and the jargon can be confusing. There’s a lot to know about the world of testing. Test from the Top delivers quick, concise guidance to bridge the gap! It offers clear, actionable steps and is a must have for busy leaders who need quick answers.
What You Will Learn:
- How and where to integrate testing in the software development lifecycle
- Testing terminology and concepts from a management perspective
- Common pitfalls of testing, how to avoid wasted time
- How to hire test-aware teams
- The value in reusing test code for more generalized automation
Who This Book is for:

Either new to testing concepts or modernizing systems or looking to improve software quality. Assumed to have a working knowledge of the Software Development Lifecycle and basic project management (no specific methodology required).
