Lee Copeland - Proving Our Worth: Quantifying the Value of Testing ( 315 MB, 54:38 min ) Google TechTalks August 10, 2006 video.google.com/videoplay?docid=114463176347297820
ABSTRACT The real purpose of testing is to create information. So, when managers complain that testing "costs too much" perhaps they are really trying to say, "I'm not getting enough valuable information to justify the cost of testing." Join Lee as he discusses why quantifying the value of testing is difficult work perhaps that's why we concentrate so much on testing processthat's much easier. But until we do this difficult work, until we prove our worth through quantifying our contribution, we should expect the bombardments to continue.
