An important objective in testing software systems is to show that they actually work. This can be done quickly for single benign cases, but then the system may fail in the real world. In addition to showing that the software works, testing must try to break the software by attacking it. This attack approach can be applied to all embedded software devices. This book details over 30 software testing attacks needed to find bugs in today’s handheld, mobile, and smart devices, all of which utilize embedded software. The book will also provide extensive testing techniques not found in any other book.
