Testing in the Wild: The Social and Organisational Dimensions of Real World Practice

摘要: Testing is a key part of any systems engineering project. There an extensive literature on testing, but very little that focuses how testing carried out in real-world circumstances. This partly because current practices are often seen as unsophisticated and ineffective. We believe by investigating characterising the work we can help question why such `bad practices' occur improvements might be made. also argue too focused technological issues when many problems, indeed strengths, have much do with organisation. In this paper use empirical examples from four projects to demonstrate what ways cooperative activity. particular which situated within organisational satisfices marketplace demands.
