plz suggest the the topic of ph.d from software testing

N

Myself is Naseema Siddiqui from India.I have done my post graduation in computer science(MCA 2007).Now I have 2 years of Experience in Software testing.I have also cleared ISTQB Certification(Foundation level) in December 2007.
Now I want to join the Ph.d but not able to understand in which topic should I go for the Ph.d.I have a sound knowledge in software testing ,So I want to pick the topic from the software testing domain which is also beneficial in the future.
Will any1 suggest me the topic for thesis.

I'd go for a! Career-wise, I think you can go much further with a than s, especially if you're after publications and a lectureship post.

H

Am I being thick or....

am I missing something?

J

No idea what the vote is about.... But doing a PhD is about being an independent researcher, and for me is about jumping over one hurdle at a time with miles of hurdles ahead; finding a topic is the first hurdle, if you cant jump over that one by yourself, you wont make the course.

P

I fear the subcontinent has generated many similar posts on this forum recently... am I amused, am I a little embarrassed, am I perplexed?

Naseema, why do you, in your words "want to join PhD"? What do you mean by "beneficial in the future"? Why and how will anyone "suggest you the topic"?

I

Love it. Who's going to be the first to put their own work aside to 'suggest a topic' for somebody else's PhD? Honestly it's unbelievable!

W

I will! Using my advanced PhD research skills I employed Google using the following search terms [software] + [testing] + [PhD] to yield the following result, via computermagical wizardry...http://www.shef.ac.uk/dcs/research/groups/vt/phd/software_testing_projects.html

Go forth, my friend, and seek your rightful place as a self-initiated and problem solving researcher.(up)

I'm sad to see that 'a' is being sorely under-represented here!!! Naseema, definitely, go for A!!! You won't regret it!!!!!

S

I voted A, and I am PROUD!

H

I think you should develop an algorithm that allocates projects to potential PhD students and test it to see the project completion rate.

A

I'm with you Sleepy.
Definitely A.
Wouldn't waste my time on S.

W

I'm disappointed with all of us! Naseema is no better of in having a decision made for him since he originally posted, since both project A and S are 50/50! We need someone to come along and with the power of their vote make the ultimate decision for him.

A

'Naseema' is a she, not a he.

My apologies, Naseema. Thanks for pointing it out, Aloha.:-)
