Summary: 

Over the years, Rob Sabourin has discovered testing lessons in diverse places-the Simpsons, the Great Detectives, and Dr. Seuss. Join Rob for a raucous, new adventure as he shares his testing lessons from the world of comic book superheroes. Rob believes these superheroes can teach important lessons about software testing and may even inspire you to become a "supertester." Superheroes have mythic adventures: escaping from strange planets, becoming irradiated, avenging crime, and more. Rob explores the skills of real-world supertesters. Batman's utility belt is filled with tools to get him out of danger-with his utility belt of tools and techniques, a supertester can quickly ferret out serious bugs. The Hulk's strength does the work of many people-supertesters develop design skills to build powerful tests. X-ray vision allows Superman to detect hidden enemies-supertesters uncover almost invisible defects lurking in systems. A tingling "spidey-sense" warns Spiderman of imminent danger-supertesters develop a perceptive, risk-exposing intuition. Take the first step toward becoming a supertester and get on the path to being a superhero in your organization.
