SWTC Cambridge - Designing Tests

The next Software Testing Clinic (http://softwaretestingclinic.com) session will cover Designing Tests. There are a number of tools and techniques we can use to help us design tests, in this session we'll take a look at some of them. By the end of the session we'll have covered:

• Mnemonics to retrieve heuristics and oracles
• Describing what a heuristic is
• Describing what an oracle is
• Apply using heuristics and oracles to a testing situation
• Correlation between heuristics and test ideas

If you are coming as a mentor, make sure you tell us via the RSVP questionnaire.

==What is Software Testing Clinic?==

The Software Testing Clinic is a safe environment for anybody who wants
to learn about software testing and enhance their testing skills. SWTC
offers monthly evening sessions for anybody interested in the testing
craft; they are run in an interactive way using whiteboard sessions,
hands-on exercises and discussions with the whole group as well as in
sub teams to deepen our understanding of software testing. You are led
through the evening by a team of hosts, supported by more experienced
testers who can use and enhance their mentoring skills.
