Features: This book is a systematic introduction to identifying, correcting, and preventing defects in object-oriented software development projects. It comprehensively covers all aspects of defect elimination, not only introducing testing but also key aspects of the software development process. The book targets defect management in object-oriented environments. However, this does not mean that all defect management techniques introduced in this book are unique to object-oriented environments. On the contrary, each useful technique mentioned for object-oriented environments may not have originally been developed for that context. It is suitable for professional software engineers, researchers in object technology and defect management, and graduate students in software engineering. It can serve as a textbook for advanced courses in object-oriented defect management or supplementary reading material for advanced courses in object-oriented software engineering. As software increases, requirements become more complex, and maintenance costs rise, improving software quality and conducting effective defect management become increasingly important. To address this issue, the book proposes the concept of object-oriented software defect management. It primarily introduces the uniqueness of object-oriented technology in defect management, defect prevention, defect identification, and how to manage defects at various stages of the software lifecycle. The book also provides numerous templates and checklists for easy use. With clear concepts and thorough explanations, it is suitable for software engineers, technicians and researchers working in object technology and defect management, as well as serving as a textbook for undergraduate and graduate students in software engineering at universities, or as training material for object-oriented defect management.
