Testing Foundations

In these pages, I review books, articles, and web pages. If you're involved in the creation of software products, whether as a developer, tester, technical writer, manager, or other role, you will find something useful here.
From book review pages, you can click on a link to buy a copy from fatbrain.com technical bookstore. I am an affiliate, which means I get a percentage of the purchase price if you buy.
I welcome reviews from others. Contact me at marick@testing.com.
