The software profession is evolving rapidly, and software testing is also evolving.
- Some people talk about software and software testing as a “craft,†but are we doomed to remain in such a primitive state, like medieval swordsmith’s guilds?
- As the phrases “software engineering†and “test engineer†have long implied, can we advance to a true engineering profession. What is the history?
- What can other engineering professions teach us?
- What do other engineering professions have, and how can we go about creating analogous resources for software engineering?
- What will a true software engineering profession mean for testing?
Join Rex for this imaginative trip into one possible future, based on science and engineering facts.
