Although there are no maturity goals at this level, an organization can begin to assemble components for the Testers’ Workbench. The goal is to provide a minimum set of basic tools for each developer. These tools do not require advanced training and should be available to all develop ers. Access to the tools is through a personal computer or workstation at each person’s desk. The PC or workstation for each developer should be equipped with (i) a word processing program, (ii) a spreadsheetprogram, (iii) a file comparison utility that indicates if two files are the same or different, (iv) an emailer to ensure adequate communication, and (v) a screen capture program that allows the contents of a screen to be sent to a file or to a printer. A laptop computer is also useful for simple mea surement collection (see Chapter11). Supported byaPC,laptop,orwork station platform, the Testers’ Workbench can be initiated with a minimal set of tools that will introduce developers to benefits of tool usage, and support simple measurement collection.
