Book Description

0201701030 978-0201701036 November 3, 2000

In this book, the authors provide an introduction to the essential activities involved in a software engineering project. Readers will come to understand technical skills in requirements/specification, analysis, design/implementation, and testing. These methods are treated fully, with a multitude of examples for readers to emulate. The book is divided into four parts—Software and Engineering; Requirements and Specification; Design and Coding; and Software Testing—to discuss the phases (besides coding) of the software lifecycle. It covers modern topics like Capability Maturity Model, Java, Automated and Regression testing, and Safety for mission critical projects. This book is designed to hone the skills of the software engineer by reinforcing the methods and techniques used throughout the software lifecycle.

2.0 out of 5 stars Nothing to be learnt from here, December 6, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: The Engineering of Software: A Technical Guide for the Individual (Paperback)
This book has very general information that I am sure most people know without having to read a book. There is nothing much I learnt from this book, though I was really interested and enthusiastic about learning the software development process. This book also has a lot of typos, and I am very disappointed with this book.
