Year 2000 Software Testing

Rating:
Summary: Good assessment & strategy, weak in detailed techniques
Review: This is a decent book on testing assessment, strategy,and planning, but I was looking for testing techniques specific to the Year 2000 problem and this book disappointed me in that area: for example, there is no mention in the index of "data aging", "baseline", "future date testing", or the "28-year rule". I was looking for insights on how these techniques and others can be applied, based on the "successful Y2K software testing program" referenced in the publisher's notes (which I think are misleading).

I am glad I bought this book, for the checklists and document examples, but I am still anxiously awaiting the first true Year 2000 testing book.
