ARTICLE: Test Notes and Coverage Maps--Aids for Rapid Testing
Author(s): Sridhar Kasibhatla/Andrew Robins
Summary: As delivery cycles get shorter, rapid test techniques are gaining in popularity. In this article, Sridhar Kasibhatla and Andrew Robins explore the concept of using coverage maps and test notes to support exploratory testing and concurrent test design. These maps and test notes also are used to review and track test coverage and can help document dynamically generated test cases for future re-use.

ARTICLE: Measuring the Risk Factor
Author(s): Yamini Munipalli
Summary: The concept of risk is inherent in any development effort. Since risk is impossible to avoid, the best way to deal with risk is to contain it. One way to contain risk is through risk management. Risk management involves the identification of risks, analysis of exposure to the risks in a development effort, and execution of the risk management plan. In this article, Yamini Munipalli details one way of assigning and managing risk to a software development plan. This version of risk analysis, drawn from many schools of thought, remains flexible enough to use within any company for any project.
