As a leader in the software quality space, I'll say this: This is an excellent book on the subject of the craft of software quality and should be on the bookshelf of any practitioner of the art. I got for myself both the kindle and paperback versions and have recommended this to my team.

I picked this up on a whim after the authors posted a blurb on linkedin and I gotta say everything in this book so far is excellent at half way through. The content is not overly technical and this keeps it out of the more hands on Testing Goat making the book a classic in testing and testing strategy. In addition to this it's a page turner, the anecdotes are great, the feel they go for from chapter to chapter is engaging and for me it's answering questions about testing that schooling/other content hasn't been able to do well or concisely.I would recommend it!

Very useful book if you want to learn about software testing. It covers a lot of ideas and even has a section on how to deal with office politics! Very interesting.

This is going to be a tough review because I compare any new testing books with such timeless classic works as "Perfect Software And Other Illusions About Testing" and "Becoming a Technical Leader." Jumping ahead, though - this book certainly deserves a place on the same shelf.You will find a tasteful mix of memoirs and guidelines, which is well consistent with "Strategies.." title of the book. Best of all people can learn from experiences and mistakes; smart people can learn from someone else's experiences and mistakes, and this book has plenty to offer. As a bonus, you can approach the authors online. If nothing else, you'll benefit from their talks, articles, and videos.The chapters of the book provide a vast coverage of topics, giving a "lookahead" for testing managers and hands-on testers. If needed, one can jump to a strategy of interest, say, Accessibility, Automation, or politics in Testing. Yes, the book is not stuck with technical concepts only. In fact, the chapter about corporate politics and professional boundaries will be truly valuable for people even completely outside of the testing profession and even applicable to situations in marriage.The book is quite heavy (nearly 400 pages!), which makes it difficult to recommend any additions. But I'd still recommend two. More situational examples and storytelling - especially because the authors do many of them in the brilliant Jerry Weinberg style. Plus chapters on job search for testers and also on hiring strategies. Finding good testers is hard!Concluding, this book is definitely not a "Minimal Viable Product" (MVP), it's an MFVP - Multi-Faceted Viable Product. The book is solid and stable enough - yet I wouldn't call it complete and final. Testing can be stopped but never finished, it may always expand and go deeper - and the Software Testing Strategies book is a great representation of that concept!

Very well thought out book with meaningful and real world examples. Would recommend to anyone who is interested in this field; new or veteran.
