Its scale, flexibility, cost effectiveness, and fast turnaround
are just a few reasons why crowdsourced testing has received so
much attention lately. While there are a few online resources
that explain what crowdsourced testing is all about, there’s been
a need for a book that covers best practices, case studies, and
the future of this technique.

Leveraging the Wisdom of the Crowd in
Software Testing shows you how to leverage the wisdom of the
crowd in your software testing process. Its comprehensive
coverage includes the history of crowdsourcing and crowdsourced
testing, implementation practices, and future trends.

The book discusses best practices in implementation—explaining
what, when, and how to crowdsource in a testing effort. It also
includes case studies that illustrate how both product and
service companies have successfully applied crowdsourcing in
their testing programs.

Explaining how to use the combined advantages of crowdsourcing
and cloud computing for software testing, the book examines
various engagement models in which you could implement
crowdsourced testing. It addresses effective defect management in
crowdsourced testing and considers both the business and
engineering aspects of crowdsourced testing.

The book explores the challenges, limitations, and situations
when crowdsourced testing will not work and provides powerful
best practices for mitigating the constraints and challenges,
including how to build a crowdsourcing platform to test software
products. Covering career opportunities for crowd testers, the
book concludes by taking a look at the need to build a
crowdsourced testing ecosystem, who the players of such an
ecosystem would be, and who would need to champion such an
effort.
