I found a question here about blogs on software development, but I would like to know which blogs on software testing this community reads. If you just have to recommend more than one blog, post each one in separate answer, so others can vote on specific blog. :) Thanks! Edit: I am not interested in sites that aggregate other blogs, b...
I've been looking at ways people test their apps in order decide where to do caching or apply some extra engineering effort, and so far httperf and a simple sesslog have been quite helpful. What tools and tricks did you apply on your projects? ...

My code takes an interface as input but only excercises a couple of the interface's methods (often, just getters). When testing the code, I'd love to define an anonymous inner class that returns the test data. But what do I do about all the other methods that the interface requires? I could use my IDE to auto-generate a stub for the i...
I need to estimate the code coverage of a test set. The tests are run on a J2ME application, on a physical device. MIDP 2.1, CLDC 1.1 and JSR-75 FileConnection are available. As J2ME is (roughly) a subset of J2SE, tools using java.io.File (like those listed in the only answer so far..) can not be used. This is mainly to identify pieces ...

I am trying to write a test which, in it's fixtures Setup, it backs up a file and deletes the original, runs the test without the original present, then in the teardown, restores the original from the backup.

I'm looking for a good, preferably free, test planning and documentation tool.
