Comprehensive and readable text on Inspections,
This review is from: Software Inspection (Paperback)
I wholeheartedly recommend this text to anyone who want to get a thorough introduction to the topic of Software Inspection. I also recommend it to those who are already practicing Inspections or even old-fashioned "Walkthroughs" or "Peer Reviews".Everyone can learn from this book. Indeed, this is book we use when teaching Inspection at Odegard Labs.

5.0 out of 5 stars
has supporting numbers,
By Eddy Parkinson - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Software Inspection (Paperback)
I was impressed by this book, it ranks up there with Code Complete and Mythical Man Month.Two very minor grumbles, the repetition and occasional over trivial advice, but don't let that put you off. The advice is aimed at those willing to make a long term investment in improving software quality. It is easy to read and is full of supporting numbers and real case studies. 17 of 23 people found the following review helpful

A bit dry...,
By Bruce Armstrong - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Software Inspection (Paperback)
Compared to "Peer Reviews in Software: A Practical Guide" or "Best Kept Secrets of Code Review", this one was a bit dry. The others were a good read and I would recommend them over this title.
