Dedicated to teaching and consulting in software testing and quality analysis, Satisfice, Inc. is a family business run by James and Lenore Bach.
Hi, I'm James Bach. I specialize in software testing. I teach, coach, consult, and write about it as a skilled craft. I am part of a community called the Context-Driven School, and this website is a partial library of my research and thinking about testing. The methodology I created is called Rapid Software Testing.
Consulting
I have been testing software and consulting for 32 years. Clients generally ask me to help evaluate or develop their testing culture and practices. I have also served as an expert witness in court cases that relate to software.
