Personal Experience

First Impressions First impressions of a book are very important particularly is you want the reader to continue reading! I guess most of us when we look to buy a book will 'flick' though the pages and ask ourselves "is this what I am looking for?". As I 'flicked' through the pages of "The Testing Practitioner", I found myself saying "there is some excellent material in here" - and I wasn't disappointed. Although a fairly large book, it was well laid out with excellent contents and index to help you find what you are looking for. This will certainly be beneficial if students are using this book to revise for the ISEB Practitioner Exam. Reasons why I like the bookThose people that know me well will understand when I say "I don't really do books". I much prefer talking to people and listening rather than reading - I guess it is a personal thing. However I liked this book for a number of reasons. Firstly I believe that you can read this book cover to cover. It follows a good pattern, starting with basics of testing, test process and risk leading to people issues in software testing. I began reading the book in this way but soon found I wanted to jump to 'favourite' topics and discovered that you can "dip" into chapters without loosing any of the context, which suits my style of reading. I liked the fact that each chapter is written by a different author. This allows variety as well as expertise to flow from the book. Some people feel that you loose continuity when you have so many authors. However because of the individual self-contained chapters, this was not the case with this book. Having different authors, in my opinion, enhances the book.Why we decided to use this book for the Practitioner Course We wanted to provide an additional resource to the students attending our ISEB Practitioner Course. The book closely follows the ISEB Practitioner Syllabus and although it doesn't have everything specified in the syllabus and will not be sufficient for those wanting to delve deeper into certain topics, we felt that it gave our students extra study material to complement our own courseware. I feel that this book will not only be beneficial to those wanting to take the ISEB Practitioner Exam, but will be useful to all testing practitioners.Lloyd RodenGrove ConsultantsAugust 2003
