Mark Twain once wrote, “It ain’t what you don’t know that gets you into trouble. It’s what you know for sure that just ain’t so.”

Fallacies abound in software testing, and risk-based testing especially suffers from a number of misconceptions.

Are you laboring under such delusions?

If so, what damage is that doing to your ability to implement the most effective and efficient way to manage the risk to the quality of your software and systems?

In this free webinar, Rex will identify and dispel these fallacies, and take your questions about risk-based testing fallacies that are affecting you.
