This book is divided into five broad parts. Part I introduces software testing in the broader context of software engineering and explores the qualities that testing aims to achieve or ascertain, as well as the lifecycle of software testing. Part II covers mathematical foundations of software testing, which include software specification, program correctness and verification, concepts of software dependability, and a software testing taxonomy. Part III discusses test data generation, specifically, functional criteria and structural criteria. Test oracle design, test driver design, and test outcome analysis is covered in Part IV. Finally, Part V surveys managerial aspects of software testing, including software metrics, software testing tools, and software product line testing. - - Presents software testing, not as an isolated technique, but as part of an integrated discipline of software verification and validation - - Proposes program testing and program correctness verification within the same mathematical model, making it possible to deploy the two techniques in concert, by virtue of the law of diminishing returns - - Defines the concept of a software fault, and the related concept of relative correctness, and shows how relative correctness can be used to characterize monotonic fault removal - - Presents the activity of software testing as a goal oriented activity, and explores how the conduct of the test depends on the selected goal - - Covers all phases of the software testing lifecycle, including test data generation, test oracle design, test driver design, and test outcome analysis - Software Testing: Concepts and Operations is a great resource for software quality and software engineering students because it presents them with fundamentals that help them to prepare for their ever evolving discipline.

Quantitative Reverse Stress Testing - Assad Bouayoun - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

Quantitative Reverse Stress Testing - Assad Bouayoun - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

A practioner’s guide to quantitative reverse stress testing, featuring advanced solutions for better management of financial risks Whether you manage a portfolio, a business unit or a bank, you must ensure that a sudden shock in the markets won’t drive you out of business because of a large loss, a jump in capital utilisation or an increase in funding consumption . In financial risk management, reverse stress testing is the attempt to identify worst case scenarios causing maximum financial loss. Traditional stress testing methods have failed to avert the last financial crisis or highlight financial distress. . Every so often some regulators and risk managers specify stress scenarios with simplifications that create a false sense of safety. To avoid a combinatorial explosion, a number of arbitrary choices are usually made in relation to the level of each shock, their combination and the time horizon. These assumptions, although necessary, limit the effectiveness of this technique. Quantitative Reverse Stress Testing: Hunting for the Black Swan offers a more natural approach to identifying the realistic scenario provoking the largest losses. It also provides a means to understand the impact of extreme events and how to mitigate them while introducing technological advances and the adapted mathematical tools that have made it possible to solve this type of quantitative finance problems. You’ll see how mitigation strategies can be more accurate and better targeted, reducing risk, cost of funding and regulatory capital. With this book, you’ll have access to a comprehensive guide to crucial aspects of reverse stress testing. · Get an introduction to a rigorous mathematical framework to quantitative reverse stress testing · Consider different heuristics, one of them based on annealing, to solve theoptimisation problem · Review solution implementation, system infrastructure design and integration into the financial risk management of a firm · Read related case studies from a variety of industries If it’s time to move your approach to reverse stress testing forward, this guide offers real solutions tooptimisation and cost issues. Get a guide that supports a more informed approach to testing and financial risk management as it helps to protect vital business interests.

Coherent Stress Testing - Riccardo Rebonato - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

Coherent Stress Testing - Riccardo Rebonato - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

In Coherent Stress Testing: A Bayesian Approach , industry expert Riccardo Rebonato presents a groundbreaking new approach to this important but often undervalued part of the risk management toolkit. Based on the author''s extensive work, research and presentations in the area, the book fills a gap in quantitative risk management by introducing a new and very intuitively appealing approach to stress testing based on expert judgement and Bayesian networks. It constitutes a radical departure from the traditional statistical methodologies based on Economic Capital or Extreme-Value-Theory approaches. The book is split into four parts. Part I looks at stress testing and at its role in modern risk management. It discusses the distinctions between risk and uncertainty, the different types of probability that are used in risk management today and for which tasks they are best used. Stress testing is positioned as a bridge between the statistical areas where VaR can be effective and the domain of total Keynesian uncertainty. Part II lays down the quantitative foundations for the concepts described in the rest of the book. Part III takes readers through the application of the tools discussed in part II, and introduces two different systematic approaches to obtaining a coherent stress testing output that can satisfy the needs of industry users and regulators. In part IV the author addresses more practical questions such as embedding the suggestions of the book into a viable governance structure.
