Lessons Learned in Software Testing: A Context-Driven Approach Bret Pettichord, Cem Kaner, James Bach, Brett Pettichord
Publisher: Wiley, John & Sons, Incorporated

Koen (a winner of ASEE's Sterling Olmsted Award) writes about the pervasiveness of heuristics in all areas of engineering: see his books: Discussion of the Method: Conducting the Engineer's Approach to Problem Solving (2003) and Bret, James and I wrote Lessons Learned in Software Testing. Lessons Learned in Software Testing: A Context-Driven Approach: A Context Driven Approach. Decades of software testing experience condensed into the most important lessons learned. At this point, I think the list is more a collection of fans of Bach & Bolton's Rapid Software Testing approach than of context-driven testing. We worked on a number of things, but the principal outcome was a statement of the premises on which Rapid Software Testing—our classes and our methodology—are based. Followers of this approach do admit that requirements, or rather documents, are hardly ever complete and that testers almost never have the possibility to design and execute all possible tests. This last insight TMap Next (Chapter 14) – Tim Koomen, Leo van der Aalst, Bart Broekman, Michiel Vroon; Lessons Learned in Software Testing – Cem Kaner, James Bach, Bret Pettichord; Essential Software Test Design – Torbjörn Ryber; What is good test case? Is it because Testing/Verification activities are part of the other 'phases' or steps in software development, so surely we should be able to manage all that, right? A few weeks ago, a colleague of mine tweeted an assertion that the context-driven testing school “censures” people who advocate for best practices. You can find an extensive list of presentations and courses that I've taught, including the slides and speaker notes for many of them, here.

Further, the choice of a testing approach is dependent on the context.

The approach is consistent with and follow-on to many of the concepts and principles introduced in the book Lessons Learned in Software Testing: a Context-Driven Approach by Kaner, Bach, and Pettichord. A context-driven tester understands that the testing practices/approaches/procedures that had worked in his earlier testing project might or might not work in the current assignment simply because the context of both these projects might not be the same!
