Welcome to the Software Process and Measurement Cast 175!

The SPaMCAST 175 features an essay titled Human Interaction While Testing On Two Continents. The essay begins:

Testing is the means of proving that the development process has understood and built what was required.  In its purist form it provides a set of proofs that validate the ‘whole’ development life cycle.  Regardless of the test model used there is one overriding goal; to deliver the best product possible within the constraints of time, budget and scope.  Meeting the goal of testing requires a strong level of interaction and communication between the testing and development teams.  This requirement becomes an imperative when testing occurs on two continents.
