Who is Jerry Weinberg?
Jerry Weinberg (27 Oct 1933 – 07 August 2018) was a well-known Scientist, Psychologist, & Anthropologist of Software Development. He contributed to developing and testing software for over 50 years and was one of the engineers who worked on the first American NASA space program (Project Mercury), where he designed and implemented the space tracking network focusing on the first multi-programmed operating systems.
Jerry was also a prolific author of 30+ books. Some of his popular books were: Secrets of Consulting, An Introduction to General Systems Thinking, Becoming a Technical Leader, Weinberg on Writing, Perfect Software and Other Illusions About Testing, Are your Lights on and many others.
In short, Jerry is the ultimate prince of software testing. You can know more about him through his fan website.
What is Tea Time with Testers?
Tea-time with Testers is the largest-circulated software testing periodical in the world. Ever since its inception in 2011, it has set one benchmark after another in testing publication circles. It was the first to do serious reporting on software testing theories and thoughts. And then again, it is the first to bring a whole new genre of technical/corporate journalism more up close and more incisive. It is the only monthly magazine in the global testing community known for the quality of its content, authors, and unique way of presenting the information. Today, Tea-time with Testers commands the highest circulation and readership among all English language testing magazines in the world. You can know more about them here and I highly recommend you to follow them. It’s available FREE of cost.
