Ok… I’ve made up my mind. I’m going to keep my eyes on the price. My heart is beating for a new beginning. This new beginning is that test is fun! It really is! It’s so much fun! Think about it, you get a chance of being creative, make life hard for programmers (has always been a dream of mine ever since I was I little girl) and – as James Bach once said in his article http://www.satisfice.com/articles/boost.shtml – you get to be a super hero at work AND get paid for being a super hero! How can that be boring?
Okay, I know many of you look at testing as kind off boring and something that just has to be done because it’s always a good idea to see if what you’ve been coding works… you write your test cases and you just do them. But that’s not how it’s supposed to be!
Testing is more then test cases and test reporting. I promise you!
I’m going to (at the best of my ability) to make you look at software testing as something fun.
I wan’t you to read James Bach article “Boost your testing super powers”. Let me know what you thought of it.
So… my main goal here with my blog is to get more people to think about software testing as something fun. A great website to check out is stickyminds.com, it has sort off become my survival. I read two, three articles a day.
Some last words: I’m going to spend some time during this week to find more amazing articles and maybe even some amazing youtube movies for you. If you know any good material about the life of a software tester (J) let me know!
Perdey!
