"Simon, I've experimented with this a few times! Currently, I am in favor of the Round Earth Test Strategy found here: https://www.satisfice.com/blog/archives/4947 I've been toying with the idea of modeling it after a hot air balloon, but I might be ..."

"Ady, I define system testing as any testing that exercises the application under test as a user in order to verify that it works properly. A system is any piece of software a user interacts with. (note that this doesn't always mean the user is a huma..."

"(Cont.) If you build up system level tests, you can update the code underneath with more confidence (and build up your other levels of testing while you're at it!). We've actually seen this situation at our company already, and I can imagine a lot of ..."

"Rosie, You could certainly argue (and I would) that Systems Testing is going to stay at least as important, if not more so in the age of AI. One example I can think of is if you're brought in to work on an existing system that was heavily written usi..."

"Hello all! I'm sorry for the delay, I actually thought I'd get an email for responses. Simon pinged me to let me know I was missing all of your questions."
