Cloud-Services testen: Von der Risikobetrachtung zu wirksamen Testmaßnahmen

Everybody is confronted with cloud computing. Whether you are a user, designer, programmer, project manager or tester, sooner or later the cloud affects your work. Chances are that this is already the case. Are you involved in selecting or implementing services from the cloud, or keeping them up and running? Then this book is invaluable.

Testing Cloud Services contains an extensive list of risks that arise when implementing cloud computing; among these are some traditional risks, and also some completely new ones. Every risk is connected to existing, updated and new test measures. What stands out about the cloud is the necessity of starting testing during the selection of cloud services. Even after going live, continuous end-to-end testing needs to be done, because continuity risks arise all the time.

With this book in hand, you can save a lot of time. The effective approach in this book can immediately be applied in practice!
