Exploring Testing from First Principles
What if we knew nothing about testing, how would we start? Does our every day life provides the tools we need to help us investigate a domain and develop the necessary skills we need to survive? This talk will start by assuming that we know nothing about Software Testing and Technical software testing. And then, using a process of questioning and exploration we will see how far we get in terms of building a model of both Software Testing and how we might test an application from a Technical perspective.
Takeaways:
– we can work from first principles to improve our knowledge experience and skills
– working from first principles is a logical and repeatable process
– we can learn to perform complicated and technical software testing activities without having to adopt a complex understanding of software testing
