 The Software Test Engineer's Handbook: A Study Guide for the ISTQB Test Analyst and Technical Test Analyst Advanced Level Certificates (Rockynook Computing) $49.95 It is easily read, a lot of necessary material covered. Some details missing since it is based on an assumption that you have read a foundation level guide. An emphasis is made on examples but not on exercises. Anyway, this is a good book and very helpful study guide for ISTQB TA and TTA examinations.  Advanced Software Testing - Vol. 1: Guide to the ISTQB Advanced Certification as an Advanced Test Analyst (Rockynook Computing) $49.95 Rex Black's `Advanced Software Testing Vol. 1' book starts off with brief overview of testing in SDLC process and different type of test, and how to plan, implement, execute and do reporting on the test result. Risk based testing has been covered in detail displaying how to analyze the risk in project and plan the testing based on the identified risk. Lot of examples has been used throughout the book explaining each topic. Good half of the book is used to explain specification based testing or black-box testing and structure-based technique or white-box test design technique. As a senior tester I felt that the book title didn't reflect the book and personally didn't feel like reading the book added to the testing knowledge that I already have. Although I would definitely recommend this book to junior and mid-level tester since it does a good job explaining everything with lot of examples. |
