Building test cases is about doing your best to find the worst in a program in order to deliver a quality product to the customer. Without a well-designed and executed test plan, the results can be catastrophic and very costly. For example,because of an error in the software, the first flight of the Ariane 5 rocket resulted in its complete destruction and the loss of four satellites at a cost of more than $370 million.

In the U.S. alone, software bugs cost the economy $59 billion2 back in 2002. Clearly, software defects must be found and corrected before unleashing new programs to the customer. This eBook provides you with a basic understanding of software test cases. In addition, the eBook describes proven methods for building test cases that uncover the most defects with the minimum of time, effort and money.
