Most modern languages/toolkits include at least some support for basic software testing (unit or functional) such as Perl, Python, Ruby or have it readily available such as JUnit for Java, NUnit for C#. For testing web applications go look at Selenium, a great package of tools for web testing that includes browser plugins.<br /><br />And *plug* I've had great experiences with the online resources including low-cost online classes available from the AST, at <a href="http://www.associationforsoftwaretesting.org/">http://www.associationforsoftwaretesting.org/</a> The BBST courses are very informative and quite challenging. */plug*<br /><br />hth,<br />adric<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=adric&ditemid=16602" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments
