Started programming in High school and have enjoyed it ever since. At times I feel I was born an engineer. Most of the last 12 years I have worked in Software technical support and tool-smith positions. Currently working on a large translation project from 10K+ LOC of Java to Python.

when you say fairly current, I think anything in the last 10 years will be good. Still be careful to eliminate Classics (such as "Software Testing Techniques" by Boris Beizer) that will be much older and contain very valuable information in that they layout foundational principles that we are still using today.

comment What proficiency should a software tester have in SQL?
Dan, I like a lot what you would require. But I don't find that many testers (testing DB apps) are actually doing that many inserts and updates. Sure it happens but in small quantities to setup test data. In the shop I am in, the performance implications are taken care of by regular DBAs. More SQL experience is better, I would agree there.

comment Difference between “Testing Behaviour” and “Test Case”
@Mr.Y, your test case or testing behavior (as you call it) would be fine to add. My few test cases were meant to be just a sampling. I would expect a person could create quite a number of test cases for the registration form. Not that all of the test cases would have equal value in actual use, just that they are many possible tests of even a simple registration form.
