One of my favorite programming books is “the pragmatic programmer”. I’ve toyed for a long time with writing articles or giving presentations on “the pragmatic tester” – and show how Andrew Hunt’s concepts of broken windows, tracer bullets, stone soup, etc. have similar or identical paradigms in the testing world.
I’m not sure anyone has already done this sort of thing, but I’ll follow up with a series of posts on this subject over the coming weeks.
