We've got this place where Quality Assurance can, during moments of boredom and mind-meltage, write up quips and random thoughts for all to see. For no particular reason, I'll pass some on to you (like you care):
Mission Statements:
Mission Statements:
- We crash software so you don't have to.
- This project is like pushing a rock uphill. As QA, it is our sworn duty to chuck banana peels underneath said rock.
- QA: Doing stupid things is our job.
- It's not a good day until we've ticked off a programmer.
- "The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds the most discoveries, is not 'Eureka!' but 'That's funny...'" - Isaac Asimov
- "On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." - Charles Babbage
- "A computer lets you make more mistakes faster than any other human invention in history... with the possible exception of handguns and tequila." - Mitch Ratcliffe
- "I'm wrong all the time. It's how I get to 'right'." - Gil Grissom
- We may experience some slight bugs and then explode.
- We have ways of making you crash...
- Ninety-nine points on the checklist to test, ninety-nine points on the list; you take one down, report all the bugs; ninety-eight points on the checklist to test...
- Report fifteen bugs, and what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt.
- Just say no to bugs.
- In brightest day, in darkest night, no bug shall escape my sight.
- The bug stops here.
- Computer stopped working after I set it on fire. Need new Computer to recreate bug.
- Atthispointthespacebarstopsfunctioning.
- With more power comes the ability to screw up in new and more spectacular ways.
