SPaMCAST 175 - Human Interaction While Testing On Two Continents

Welcome to the Software Process and Measurement Cast 175! The SPaMCAST 175 features an essay titled Human Interaction While Testing On Two Continents. The essay begins: Testing is the means of proving that the development process has understood and built what was required.  In its purist form it provides a set of proofs that validate the ‘whole’ development life cycle.  Regardless of the test model used there is one overriding goal; to deliver the best product possible within the constraints of time, budget and scope.  Meeting the goal of testing requires a strong level of interaction and communication between the testing and development teams.  This requirement becomes an imperative when testing occurs on two continents.  Interested in becoming a radio star?If you are interested in reviewing tools or books?  Drop me a note at spamcastinfo@gmail.com Shameless Ad for my book!  Mastering Software Project Management: Best Practices, Tools and Techniques co-authored by Murali Chematuri and myself and published by J.
