Hello, I am responsible for test group here at Mitel that performs independant testing of our products. This is mostly software testing and the products range upto about 1.5 million lines of embedded systems code. Most of the work centres around finding ways to economically test incremental functionality and maintenance releases of existing software for Mitel's PBX products. I would like to get in contact with other people who perform similar work to exchange ideas and possibly site visits. The idea is to discuss better ways of performing system testing and kindred activities. If anyone has this sort of experience and is interested in sharing ideas, then would you please write me at the address below. Thx. Don.

Don. Yo! Right here! Lots of experience (11 years in S/W, 6 in QA/Test), and lots of tools/ideas/stories. Lets talk!

I am a member of the Independent Software Test Group for Strategic Engineering within Motorola's Cellular Group. And VERY interested in testing methods, tools, environments, metrics, cost estimation, etc. By the way, every once in a while, someone proposes a comp.software-testing newsgroup, but nothing ever comes of it. Are we starting to generate enough interest in our chosen field to bring up this request again? -- Thanks - Rob Schultz, Motorola General Systems Sector rms 3209 N Wilke Rd, Arlington Heights, IL 60004 +1 708 632 2875 motcid!schultz@chg.mcd.mot.com !uunet!motcid!schultz Happy Holidays in whatever language or religion or lack thereof you like!! -- Thanks - Rob Schultz, Motorola General Systems Sector rms 3209 N Wilke Rd, Arlington Heights, IL 60004 +1 708 632 2875 motcid!schultz@chg.mcd.mot.com !uunet!motcid!schultz Happy Holidays in whatever language or religion or lack thereof you like!!

I'm not a "professional" test engineer, but rather a software engineer who is working in testing/QA at the moment, but the sound of a comp.software-test newsgroup sounds good as there are loads of areas that look hopeful for discussion.

If you are interested in software testing information, particularly
some reports on mutation testing, environment testing, dataflow,
testing of specifications, and/or reliability measures applied to
testing, check out the SERC bibliography described in my earlier
posting.
If not, never mind. :-)
