Software Testing Thesis

We want to help students in writing their software testing thesis. We were also once students and we know how valuable any help is. That’s why we have decided to create a list of references list for relevant testing topics. We provide here mainly literature from books, because web links are hard to maintain, since they often lead to 404 Errors after some years.

We offer paid software testing internships. This includes of course assistance from our developers and testers. If you are interested, just contact us.

You may find thesis which include QF-Test on our website in the section evaluation reports.

For your thesis we will gladly provide you with a trial license of QF-Test.

Feel free to post further good sources for these topics here to help future students in writing their software testing theses.
