Foundations of Software Testing: Fundamental Algorithms and Techniques

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

A number of people have been of significant assistance in the writing of this book. I apologize

to those whose names do not appear here but should have; the omission is purely accidental.

I thank Rich DeMillo for introducing me to the subject of software testing and support-

ing my early research. Rich pointed me to the literature that helped with the acquisition of

knowledge and of appreciation for software testing. I am grateful to Bob Horgan who influ-

enced and supported my thinking of the relationship between testing and reliability and the

importance of code coverage. Bob freely shared the early and later versions of the χSuds

toolset. I continue to believe that χSuds is so far the best toolset available for test-adequacy

assessment ...
