How to Check my pc is having internet connection using java Is this an SQA question? Or would it be better asked elsewhere? |

How to automatically break Unit Tests when their related Requirements change (before any code change) I don't know of anything magical. Wouldn't it depend on how (or how well) you write your unit tests? If your unit tests are detailed enough, any requirement change would "break" them, right? |

Looking for growth in automation You confused me when you said that you liked QTP, but the company won't pay. So, I assume Selenium won't cut it because it can't test the application that you want to test? Remember that you can use pretty much any tool to enhance your skills - you just might need to target some other application. |

Looking for growth in automation Selenium is the obvious choice here. Why won't Selenium "cut it"? |

What are the different test scenarios to be checked for giving license to a client Most of these checks (while interesting for all web apps) have nothing to do with licensing. |

What does a QA Architect do in a team, and what skills are needed for this job? I never see common agreement on any software-related titles. |

Web Application Quality Metrics Perhaps these will help: e-valid.com/Technology/White.Papers/website.quality.html "A WebSite is like any piece of software: no single, all-inclusive quality measure applies, and even multiple quality metrics may not apply." w3c.it/papers/cmg2005Poland-quality.pdf cibl-tcl.com/Documents/Research%20Papers/… infocarnivore.com/… "As a mathematician I hate to say it, but the best tool for evaluating a site is still the human eye." |

Web Application Quality Metrics Search for web quality metrics and you'll find hundreds, if not thousands. Pick the ones that you think are meaningful, then rate away. I suppose you could find a book by some "expert" who think certain metrics mean more than others ("web pages should load in less than 4 seconds"), but really, it's all about context, not universal metrics. |

clicking a link that loads the chrome debugger with errors Not quite the same thing, but this might help: allthingsquality.com/2010/04/non-reproducible-bugs.html You only fail when you don't write the bug report. |

clicking a link that loads the chrome debugger with errors No problem. My motto: "When in doubt, write a bug report." In the best case, you've notified the right people about a critical issue. In the worst case, someone reads it and dismisses it as unimportant. But if you keep it to yourself, everyone loses. |

Should we reject QA candidates based on basic reasoning and math tests? Huh? So you are a world class tester who loves to solve puzzles, but are thinking of a career change because you didn't get enough recognition? Perhaps it's the language, but I'm having a hard time understanding how this reply is relevant to the original poster's question. Sorry. |

What programming languages are good for novice testers to learn? AutoIT is a good tool. I've used it in the past. However, I'm pretty sure that AutoIT is freeware, but not open source. See: autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/license.htm |

What is a good KPI for software QA? @Bruce - I mostly agree. Which is why I always try to hitch my "testing wagon" to a winning team. You can't test success into a product. And it's hard to feel good about a great testing job if the rest of the company sucks. Still, I can't necessarily call your list "KPI's for testing". More like "KPI's for products or companies". |

What is a good KPI for software QA? So it isn't possible to have "good testing" without having "good everything else"? |

SQL “sandbox” for new QA staff training: DB structure, approach, deployment and maintenance? Couldn't you just use the scripts for MS-SQL and adapt them to use in your Oracle environment? Or just search and you find links like learndotnetprogramming.com/2007/04/12/… |

Issue tracker that supports geo location Just curious - what added benefit would a location provide for issue tracking? |
