Signs That You’re Dating A Tester!

1. Your love letters get returned to you marked up with red ink, highlighting your grammar and spelling mistakes.
2. When you tell him that you won’t change something he has asked you to change, he’ll offer to allow you two other flaws in exchange for correcting this one.
3. When you ask him how you look in a dress, he’ll actually tell you.
4. When you give him the “It’s not you, it’s me” breakup line, he’ll agree with you and give the specifics.
5. He won’t help you change a broken light bulb because his job is simply to report and not to fix.
6. He’ll keep bringing up old problems that you’ve since resolved just to make sure that they’re truly gone.
7. In the bedroom, he keeps “probing” the incorrect “inputs”.

Outside food not allowed!

Two software testers went into a diner and ordered two drinks. Then they produced sandwiches from their briefcases and started to eat. The owner became quite concerned and marched over and told them, “You cannot eat your own sandwiches in here!”

The testers looked at each other, shrugged their shoulders and then exchanged sandwiches.

A very old joke on Testing

You probably have heard it/ But then you may not have :)

The Engineering Director of a software company proudly announced that a flight software developed by the company was installed in an airplane and Jet Airways was offering free first flights to the Engineering members of the company. “Who are interested?” the Director asked. Nobody came forward. Finally, one person volunteered. The brave Software Tester stated, “I will do it. I know that the airplane will not be able to take off.”

Software Testing Myths & Misconceptions

Some Testing misconceptions that even senior business and engineering people have!  

Myth: Initiating testing activities earlier in the development cycle increases delivery time while reducing the number of features in the product.

Myth: You can't test if you don't have a product to test.

Myth: It's not a bug -- the feature is working as designed.

Myth: Continually regressing everything every time we change code is tedious and time consuming…but, in an ideal world, it should be done.

Myth: A tester's only task is to find bugs.

Myth: We don't have enough resources or time to fully test the product.

Myth: Testing should take place in a controlled environment.

Mobile performance testing

Why mobile performance testing is critical


Interesting excerpts for the above article

1. Doing pre-deployment performance testing is critical now more than ever.  You don’t want your end users to be your testers
2. 7% of users abandon applications after just one second of delay in performance. 11% abandon at two seconds, 18% at three, 25% at four and 50% at five seconds.
