June thoughts: ISO, books, and conferences

So I continue, as the earlier Blog indicated, wanting to be careful with how much I blog.  Maybe that will change as I get more useful things to post.  This time I would like to mention where things are on several fronts.

1. ISO 29119 Software Testing Standard part 1, 2, and 3 have been approved by ISO.  I was IEEE project editor. It is a benchmark (for those that know about benchmarks they are useful for establishing where things are, but in the USA early land point benchmarks are known to be needing revision). IEEE and ISO will be releasing the software testing standard to general use in the coming weeks/months.  I hope people start looking it over and give us feedback.  There is work to be done.

2. My Book; all work is done except the cover.  Software Test Attacks to Break Mobile and Embedded Software (the book) should be out in the next few months.  We will have our web site up, class materials, and support info in the near future.  It has been a long trip getting it done.

3. Conferences: I will be attending a number of conferences starting in late August until Early November.  We’ll have more posting and info on those as well as some webinars.  Be watching for those details or contact me.  We will be at CAST, Softec Asia, STARwest, IEEE ISO29119 webinar, Embedded Software Testing (Spain), and ISO WG26 meeting.  Topics will be ISO29119, mobile and embedded testing, and general testing.  Hope to meet new friends at these meetings.

Life is busy in semi-retirement.
