Abstract
Takes an applied approach to teaching how to test software for common bugs. Instead of relying on a rigid plan, it should be intelligence, insight, experience and a "nose for where the bugs are hiding" that guide testers. This book helps testers develop this insight. The techniques presented here allow testers to go off-script.
