I'm starting to write a new article series for IBM Rational Quality Manager (which is in Open Beta now). As part of my ongoing research on the tool, I of course found the Rational Quality Manager blog (which appears to be managed by Brian Bryson). One of the recent posts has this cool little video explaining the tool's goals.

Don't get me wrong. It's 100% marketing material. No deep intellectual detail here. I just like the video. Reminds me of the UPS whiteboard advertising campaign.

David Christiansen and I did recently gave a webcast on SOA testing and some popular tools available. I really enjoyed giving the talk. It runs a little over one hour. You can find it here .

We also have an upcoming IWST on SOA Testing. If you have an experience you'd like to share, drop me a line. The workshop is free, the people are cool, and if I have my way we'll have some sort of group exercise where we actually fire up some web services and test them. That reminds me, if you're a company that has a web service that might be good for an exercise, you can also drop me a line. :)
