Welcome to my testing blog, offering an interesting, perhaps funny, perhaps entertaining, perhaps thoughtful view of my profession of software testing.


To kick this blog off right, I offer you Rapid Tester, a song about a tester at wit’s end about how to test all the stuff that he’s expected to test, and how the Rapid Testing course gave him hope that he could at least do a defensibly reasonable job given what he has to work with.


I this wrote on the occasion of attending my first RST class at James Bach’s Satisfice world headquarters in Front Royal, VA. I’ve edited it slightly since then as my understanding of the material has grown, but the essence remains the same. It borrows pretty much everything from Steve Earle’s beautiful song “Someday”.


Enjoy the song.  Did you change your opinion of yourself or your job because of the RST course or others like it?
