The book presents various test parameters and metrics that can be used to vividly illustrate the progress of software development as part of a software test and to easily identify the need for action. Key parameters and index values for successful reporting - also for management - are explained in detail. These can vary depending on the type of issue, project scope or project status. The author provides important background knowledge. This practical guide is therefore primarily aimed at employees in IT projects, such as project managers, software testers and developers, as well as business and technology consultants. Lecturers at colleges and universities will find an exciting insight into various software testing methods. Frank Witte has many years of experience in software testing in various companies and industries. He is constantly faced with the challenge of presenting progress, but also problems, in the testing process to project leaders and management and summarizing his results in reporting with the help of figures. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence. A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content.
