The Study of “How you know what you know”
Epistemology is a branch of philosophy which help to test better!!!
The practical application in software testing is that it will ask question like
- How to know the software is good?
- How to know the software is not good?
- How to know that you have tested enough?
Even with out knowing about epistemology, you might be a good tester.But if you wanna be better learn this too – this is what the author recommends.
Anyways this is a naive thing to me, so thought of sharing. This is from a book called as “Lessons Learned in Sofware Testing”.
