Hai Friend
I am Rajendra,
As you are very beginner for software testing
first you should have a strong knowledge in manual
software testing concepts and methodolies.
Once if you get some command on manual then try the
automation tools.
Be rememeber always one thing-
"Automation is part but Manual is HEART!"
Without having sufficient foundation on Manual testing
learning automation tools is mere waste.
If you already knew Manual testing
then i suggest you the book titled
1. "Software Testing Tools"
By Dr.K.V.K.K Prasad
Dreamtech Press
Cover price Rs:279/-(with CD)
2. "Software Testing
Principles and Practices"
By Srinivas desikan,
Gopalaswamy Ramesh
Pearson education
cost around Rs:200/-
This book is best for understanding Manual
testing process and concepts
ok
then byeeeee

Hi Roopa,
First of all Congratualations for choosing testing.
personally i suggest you go through the Help files which
were provided with the software. No book is as good as
tutorials and other stuff provided with the software. This
is the Best way to learn the automated tools in Depth..

I am glad to see Mr. Rajendra proposing the book authored
by me here. The book "Software Testing - Principles and
Practices" covers the basic concepts for both Manual
testing and automated testing. This will give you the
foundation.

Answer / megha
The book "Software testing tools" by K.V.V Prasad is good
book only to understand basic concepts of Manual
Testing.Thought it has few chapters for Automation they
dont really talk anything in detail.So if you want to
improve on your basis only then i recommend you this book
but if you are looking for any book only for Silk Test then
this book is not a good choice.
