Yep one tester I know had as his first tests
Hit multiple keys on the keyborard at once and do that for a few seconds.
Then if it p[assed that he would get down to more structured testing.
Testers have to assume the user is an idiot and also will always do the wrong thing.
- SideburnsOfDoom 3y agoTesters have value. But that value is not in yet again, before each release, taking a day to run through an excel spreadsheet of checks that should have been long ago automated into a 2-minute run.
- pasc1878 3y agoAgreed on more automation. But some tests will take time to run so a day turn round is a quick turnround. If you have databases involved it will not be a 2 minute run - the network latency will make the queries take time. Note these need to be run as integration tests so mocking is not sufficient.
- TheCoelacanth 3y ago2 minutes is an eternity in database time. You should be able to run dozens of test cases in that amount of time unless your app is just monstrously slow.
- pasc1878 3y agoThe time in the database is low. The time is the time transferring data over the network and the limiting factor is the number of individual transactions. A result processing one record does have similar speed to one looking at 1000 records.
