This book provides a step by step guide to all the processes, goals, inputs, outputs and many other aspects of a repeatable software methodology for ANY project. From “soup to nuts” … the whole shebang ~! All in one place at an incredible price…. over 130 pages of knowledge. Any information technology organization must have a highly structured framework into which it can place processes, principles, and guidelines. The framework used for software development is a called a lifecycle. The software development lifecycle (SDLC) defines a repeatable process for building information system that incorporate guidelines, methodologies, and standards. A lifecycle delivers value to an organization by addressing specific business needs within the software application development environment. The implementation of a lifecycle aids project managers in minimizing system development risks, eliminating redundancy, and increasing efficiencies. It also encourages reuse, redesign, and, more importantly, reducing costs.

This book, "A Down-To-Earth Guide To SDLC Project Management" aims to provide you with the knowledge, understanding, and techniques required for guiding that small to medium size System / Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) project to a successful conclusion. This book is based on several years of SDLC project management experience and on the Project Management Body Of Knowledge (PMBOK) with a blending of other project methodologies (such as Agile). That is, this book contains a merging of concepts, principles, and practical experiences from the various industrial backgrounds of those persons who contributed to this book's creation. Additionally, this book has been targeted at the practical application of project management theory to real world situations and circumstances where the realities of commercial necessities have to be taken into consideration.This book has been laid out specifically for easy reading (and hopefully you will find it entertaining while educating), contains over 100 explanatory diagrams, in excess of 100 cartoons to emphasize the key points, includes real-world example cases, has candid comments from project managers & program managers.DISCLAIMER... Any caricatures to persons you know is purely coincidental, any similarities to your past projects is “experience”, any uncanny similarity to your current project is DEJA VU.

This is the digital version of the printed book (Copyright © 2004). Testing is not a phase. Software developers should not simply throw software over the wall to test engineers when the developers have finished coding. A coordinated program of peer reviews and testing not only supplements a good software development process, it supports it. A good testing life cycle begins during the requirements elucidation phase of software development, and concludes when the product is ready to install or ship following a successful system test. Nevertheless, there is no one true way to test software; the best one can hope for is to possess a formal testing process that fits the needs of the testers as well as those of the organization and its customers. A formal test plan is more than an early step in the software testing process-it's a vital part of your software development life cycle. This book presents a series of tasks to help you develop a formal testing process model, as well as the inputs and outputs associated with each task. These tasks include: review of program plans development of the formal test plan creation of test documentation (test design, test cases, test software, and test procedures) acquisition of automated testing tools test execution updating the test documentation tailoring the model for projects of all sizes Whether you are an experienced test engineer looking for ways to improve your testing process, a new test engineer hoping to learn how to perform a good testing process, a newly assigned test manager or team leader who needs to learn more about testing, or a process improvement leader, this book will help you maximize your effectiveness.
