What thing has had the biggest effect on your testing career?

[Archana]

Is there any incident, book, quote or anything else that has affected your testing career in some way? Anyone has any such experience to share?

• Rapid Software Testing – training by Michael Bolton, really changed my perspective
• Joining Twitter has told me even more, and shaped my outlook

Hi Jesper, Any points or takeaways from this training that you would like to share with us?

[Jesper]

Regarding Rapid Software Testing

– That your approaches and techniques never are finite, and it’s better to look at heuristics/guidelines/rules of thumb

– We always have time to test, and that test is a brain activity

– That Quality is a perception (See: Jerry Weinberg)

– something about oracles: https://jlottosen.wordpress.com/2012/01/30/all-oracles-are-failable/

Thanks Jesper. Would be great to hear experiences from other members too.
