What is the BEST practice of legacy Programmer?
Content by @roofimon from BugDay 2009
 Come to office very late
 Pretend reading software specification
 Write some crap code (Requirement too complex)
 Chat for a while
 Tweet all the time
 Write more crap code (Work First, Test Last)
 I’m done, It’s work!!! (in my Dream)
 Pass this to Tester
 May the force be with you Tester
 …
 So the war begin, … No No No … the Love Begin

 May the force be with you Programmer
 …
 So the war begin, … No No No … the Love Begin also

What do you think Software Testing is?

11. 11
Facts in Software Development
there will always be a chance that
software will contain bugs
cannot prove software works
by testing it
software testing does not prove that
software is bug-free

12. 12
Goals of Software Testing
software testing is to
minimize the risk of bugs occurring
software testing must be to demonstrate that
software does have bugs

13. 13
Bugs is a Boomerang

14. 14
How Programmer and Tester can work together
Smooth as Silk (maybe)?

15. 15
We don’t build Software but
We make it work with Quality

16. 16
Sharing Everything
Build Trust
Don’t Blame Other
Give Credit to Others for Their Work
Don’t Remember to Flush
Often say “Thanks”, “Please” and “Sorry”

17. 17
We’re a team,
One person struggles, We all struggle
