Software Testing: An Istqb-iseb Foundation Guide 2nd Edition

I bought this book out of curiosity and I am glad that I did purchase the book (Kindle version). This book wass worth reading. Anyone having some sort of SDLC background should understand the storyline captured by this book and use it in real life. This book is, however, NOT for someone who wants to become a tester. This book will definitely help someone having some sort of SDLC knowledge pass ISTQB Foundation exam.I enjoyed it and I believe it's a good book for people hoping to get ISTQB certified.

This book is written to cover the material on the ISTQB Foundation Level exam. It does a good job of stating the ISTQB syllabus objectives and includes a few sample questions in each section. This book would be more self contained with a glossary, although ISTQB has a glossary on their web site.People reading this book should be aware that the Foundation Level exam is heavy on terminology, process, and concepts. As such this book spends quite a bit of time on those topics, but does not give as thorough coverage of how to write good software tests as you will need to do a good job working in this field. There are also some differences in the terminology, and meaning of a few terms between this international exam and the meaning in common usage in the US.

While my ISTQB certification will never expire I wanted to keep current and capable at this foundation level. This 3rd edition has enabled me to check my understanding and confirm to me I would still pass this exam today. Worth the investment for me.

Passed the test. Material from the book was on the test. Worth it

Simple language makes it easy to understand, versus other books I read. The sample exams and knowledge checks are helpful.

It helped me pass the Foundation Level certification exam. Some of the chapters were hard to follow, and to feel like I understood everything, but I think that is understandable since it is a pretty high-level coverage of the subject. Some chapters were quite enjoyable to read.

Nice book for Software Tester : An ISTQB Certified Tester Foundation guide! .Nice Good Book IT Software tester guide .

I expected a structured description of a testing process. The book doesn't have it. Describe basis and techniques but very little process.
