What readers say
This is the first attempt I have seen to bring all the various software testing disciplines together in a single publication… with these sort of "comprehensives" it's challenging to get the balance right between providing enough detail to articulate the subject matter and leaving the reader with too many unanswered questions… this is a book I would gladly add to my IT reference library.
