Any good test plan/cycles or experiences without using crowdsourcing? You may want to search for "combinatorial testing". |

Looking for growth in automation @Joe Strazzere Can you use Selenium to test Windows applications? Or did I misunderstand the question? |

Recommendations for code coverage tools? @Shantonu I think Sam was asking about tools that measure how much of the code under test is executed. The packages you described are frameworks for organizing and executing automated tests. To see the difference, try comparing ncover.com to nunit.org. |

What are the most common mistakes student programmers make? I think this is a fine question to ask, but it does not have much to do with QA or testing. Can someone migrate this over to programmers.stackexchange.com? |

How do I automate “service-level” testing for a GUI app @dzieciou Fair point. I answered the question from a test-follows-code perspective. From a TDD perspective, where the test acts as a requirement, your comments make sense. |

How do I automate “service-level” testing for a GUI app I don't know what you mean by "unit test project" -- is that an Eclipse term? In any case, I will update my answer to address "accessing the code". |

Is it worth having one set of tests for both functional and performance testing? There is some tangential discussion about that at sqa.stackexchange.com/questions/5389/…. |

Load Testing Ajax application A recording proxy sitting between the browser and server ought to capture Ajax requests, but of course there is no guarantee the Ajax requests will be valid during playback. |

Radiobutton group with NO default option: bug / acceptable / it depends? @Edu Agreed it is important -- but not relevant to SQA. Please open a question in the meta section if you want to discuss this further. |

Radiobutton group with NO default option: bug / acceptable / it depends? Agreed it may be a bug, but SQA is not a forum about product requirements. StackExchange has a usability forum, where people can answer the question, "What should be?". Here, we focus on "How do we test whether what is matches what should be?" And now this is a meta-topic. Feel free to post a Meta question about this. |

Copying Production Data to a QA Environment That sounds a lot like what we've done at my last two jobs. It took the better part of a day to scrub a production backup at my last job, but the data was invaluable. For example, by analyzing the database I was able to determine which of hundreds paths were actually getting used in a complicated workflow, and therefore which were the most important for us to test. That analysis converted an unmanageable test problem into a manageable one. |

Issue tracker that supports geo location I do not understand how this relates to software testing, aside from the fact that testers tend to use an issue tracking system with different features than what you described. Have you tried the GIS stackexchange site? |

Should A Formal Test Plan For Dynamic String Testing Include All Combinations? If nothing slee, contemplating an allpairs strategy forces you to think about how variables related to each other: which are independent, which are dependent, and so on. Even if you eventually choose not to use allpairs, the analysis will help you to make smarter decisions about how you test. |

Is there load/stress testing software that can be used for Ajax calls? Can you elaborate on your claim that JMeter and Grinder do not perform AJAX functions? An AJAX request boils down to an HTTP GET or POST request. |
