Software testing and technical writing

I have a strong background in software testing, but my background in software testing is, shall we say, scattered and I fear much of it may be viewed as obsolete. I have been trying to find a way to combine the two, without a lot of success. I am curious if others have experienced this, and if so, how they overcame it. Thank you.

Note: I will also post this to TECHWR-L, per the above, but I wanted to make a general entry just as a test to see what comes of it. I request your indulgence.
