Its my baby, I don't want to break it
The old school philosophy of testing is "Break the software". I used to think this way and be driven this way. Then I realized something, when my focus is on breaking something, my approach is attack mode..... If I want to break a glass vase, I throw it down and it breaks. If I want to break my software, I find vulnerable spots and take a jab at it. Then what? I report, "hey, its broken" and probably feel proud that "Hey, I broke it!!" Then what? I don't know. I am not sure if this approach every worked for me. I usually fall in love with most products I work on. They are my babies. I want the best for them. I want them to evolve and improve. I want them to co-exist with their sibling applications. I want them to have a unique name in the software industries. I want to give them the best opportunities I can provide with my team. It takes a village It take a village to raise a kid. It takes a team to create a prod
