Should coverage analysis be performed on test code? +1 for pointing out that most code in test automation tests for errors and those error paths may not get exercised in a "clean" regression run. |

Transition from all manual testing to automated testing As an reformed automated testing evangelist, while I am a strong advocate for automated testing, I do NOT advocate doing it like most companies implement software testing: insert quality at the end by utilizing technique X in testing. Automated testing is not just another cop-out for doing GOOD software development. It is a tool, and a VERY good tool, but a tool that needs to be used properly, diligently, and wisely or it will be more of an impediment to development and less of a help. |

What are the benefits of using dedicated testing languages for writing tests? For this reason, I like tools that utilize standard programming language for their automation. TestComplete allows you, actually, to select from several languages (JScript, VBScript, C#, DelphiScript). The only "vender specific" stuff are the objects that they incorporate within the dev environment (much like the VCL objects you'd find in say the Delphi IDE). |

If you could only give one book to a tester to teach them about testing, what would it be? Would this be better converted to a community wiki? It seems that it will have a lot of different answers without one specific one emerging as "THE" answer. |

How to create Testcases and Validate the controls in Testcomplete I've provided an answer below however I would suggest that a quick search in the help files available is usually the best place to start and, as pointed out in my answer, will yield some good information on the features you're asking about. |

List and role of different types of testing environments Now THAT seems to be a much better worded question and one worthy of sqa.stackexchange |

List and role of different types of testing environments This seems to be taken straight from a list of common interview questions. allinterview.com/showanswers/3735.html |

Test cases for find and replace function of notepad This question was asked and answered, as @Todd pointed out, on another site. The question does not appear to really have had a lot of research or effort added to it, more like someone is looking for help with an interview or test question, hence the down vote. |

Which tools should I start with? Are you looking for information on automated software testing and their tools, or general software testing tools? There's a bit of a difference, really. |

Calculate peak concurrent users on a website I asked a very similar question a while back. Check out sqa.stackexchange.com/questions/710/… See if that helps you. |
