Defending Standardized Testing - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Inc - Plusbog.dk

Defending Standardized Testing - - Bog - Taylor & Francis Inc - Plusbog.dk

The education reform movement of the past two decades has focused on raising academic standards. Some standards advocates attach a testing mechanism to gauge the extent to which high standards are actually accomplished, whereas some critics accuse the push for standards and testing of impeding reform and perpetuating inequality. At the same time, the testing profession has produced advances in the format, accuracy, dependability, and utility of tests. Never before has obtaining such an abundance of accurate and useful information about student learning been possible. Meanwhile, the American public remains steadfast in support of testing to measure student performance and monitor the performance of educational systems.Many educational testing experts who acknowledge the benefits of testing also believe that those benefits have been insufficiently articulated. Although much has been written on standardized testing policy, most of the material has been written by opponents. The contributing authors of this volume are both accomplished researchers and practitioners who are respected and admired worldwide. They bring to the project an abundance of experience working with standardized tests.The goal of Defending Standardized Testing is to:*describe current standardized testing policies and strategies;*explain many of the common criticisms of standardized testing;*document the public support for, and the realized benefits of, standardized testing;*acknowledge the limitations of, and suggest improvements to, testing practices;*provide guidance for structuring and administering large-scale testing programs in light of public preferences and the "No Child Left Behind Act" requirements; and*present a defense of standardized testing and a vision for its future. Defending Standardized Testing minimizes the use of technical jargon so as to appeal to all who have a stake in American educational reform.

Performance Testing - Keith Yorkston - Bog - APress - Plusbog.dk

Performance Testing - Keith Yorkston - Bog - APress - Plusbog.dk

Use this book to prepare for the ISTQB® Certified Tester Foundation Level Performance Testing exam. The book has been designed to follow the ISTQB syllabus, covering all of the syllabus learning objectives, with additional reference material extending beyond the syllabus. The book covers an overall methodology for managing and conducting performance testing. Performance testing has often been considered a black art. In many organizations, perhaps an individual or a small group of technical staff or contractors is given the task of “load testing” an extended system, network, or application. Performance testing is like any other form of testing. It follows a defined test process that is similar to other test types. It utilizes a disciplined approach to the definition of requirements and user stories, the creation of test conditions, test cases, and test procedures. It establishes measurable goals against which the success or failureof the testing can be judged. It also requires (and this cannot be stressed highly enough) a definition and recognition of performance test failures. Readers will gain the knowledge with both content and practice questions to prepare them for the ISQTB Performance Testing exam. The book covers the performance test types, the performance testing methodology, and the steps to plan, create, and execute performance tests and analyze the results. What You Will LearnUnderstand the basic concepts of performance efficiency and performance testingDefine performance risks, goals, and requirements to meet stakeholder needs and expectationsUnderstand performance metrics and how to collect themDevelop a performance test plan for achieving stated goals and requirementsConceptually design, implement, and execute basic performance testsAnalyze the results of a performance test and communicate the implications to stakeholdersExplain the process, rationale, results, and implications of performance testing to stakeholdersUnderstand the categories and uses for performance tools and criteria for their selectionDetermine how performance testing activities align with the software life cycle Who This Book Is ForThose who want to achieve the ISTQB performance testing certification, testers and test managers who want to increase their performance testing knowledge, and project managers/staff working with performance testing in their project for the first time

Modern Software Testing Techniques - Attila Kovacs - Bog - APress - Plusbog.dk

Modern Software Testing Techniques - Attila Kovacs - Bog - APress - Plusbog.dk

Many books have been written about software testing, but most of them discuss the general framework of testing from a traditional perspective. Unfortunately, traditional test design techniques are often ineffective and unreliable for revealing the various kinds of faults that may occur. This book introduces three new software testing techniques: Two-Phase Model-Based Testing, the Action-State Testing, and the General Predicate Testing, all of which work best when applied with efficient fault revealing capabilities. You’ll start with a short recap of software testing, focusing on why risk analysis is obligatory, how to classify bugs practically, and how fault-based testing can be used for improving test design. You’ll then see how action-state testing merges the benefits of state transition testing and use case testing into a unified approach. Moving on you’ll look at general predicate testing and how it serves as an extension of boundary value analysis, encompassing morecomplex predicates. Two-phase model-based testing represents an advanced approach where the model does not necessarily need to be machine-readable; human readability suffices. The first phase involves a high-level model from which abstract tests are generated. Upon manual execution of these tests, the test code is generated. Rather than calculating output values, they are merely checked for conformity. The last part of this book contains a chapter on how developers and testers can help each other and work as a collaborative team. What You'll LearnApply efficient test design techniques for detecting domain faultsWork with modeling techniques that combine all the advantages of state transition testing and uses case testingGrasp the two-phase model-based testing technique Use test design efficiently to find almost all the bugs in an applicationWho This Book Is ForSoftware developers, QA engineers, and, business analysts

Toxicity Testing for Assessment of Environmental Agents - Committee On Toxicity Testing And Assessment Of Environmental Agents - Bog - National

Toxicity Testing for Assessment of Environmental Agents - Committee On Toxicity Testing And Assessment Of Environmental Agents - Bog - National

Toxicity testing in laboratory animals provides much of the information used by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to assess the hazards and risks associated with exposure to environmental agents that might harm public health or the environment. The data are used to establish maximum acceptable concentrations of environmental agents in drinking water, set permissible limits of exposure of workers, define labeling requirements, establish tolerances for pesticides residues on food, and set other kinds of limits on the basis of risk assessment. Because the number of regulations that require toxicity testing is growing, EPA called for a comprehensive review of established and emerging toxicity-testing methods and strategies. This interim report reviews current toxicity-testing methods and strategies and near-term improvements in toxicity-testing approaches proposed by EPA and others. It identifies several recurring themes and questions in the various reports reviewed. The final report will present a long-range vision and strategic plan to advance the practices of toxicity testing and human health assessment of environmental contaminants.
