It is easy to get stuck in the game not remembering that bugs must be found. We are testing it or are we playing?<BR/>Maybe we should "skip" this, no?Ghyslain Chamberlandhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04365604701859890219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-414482498098790205.post-84671769057560973572008-04-25T14:49:00.000-06:002008-04-25T14:49:00.000-06:00Aargh, an evil blog, you purveyor of addiction you.

We all are enjoying it. Its an addiction.<BR/>I can't cross #59...i am trying it over and over but no luck :( Can i get some hints please.<BR/>Debasis, remember the sequence that you are asked to remember in a question and i am sure you can pass it easily :)Ifathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06415015554481119370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-414482498098790205.post-28003771822104763232007-11-27T06:01:00.000-07:002007-11-27T06:01:00.000-07:00Hi Ben, <BR/><BR/>I am still stuck at Qu #56! I think remember the (supposed) answer that is displayed sometime before. But in vain! Even I have tried with all the possible options available on the question. :( I understand, I must have missed something that prevents me from clearing this question. Let me see if I can make this out this weekend!<BR/><BR/>-DebasisDebasis Pradhanhttp://software-testing-zone.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-414482498098790205.post-50797791099094081342007-11-25T19:25:00.000-07:002007-11-25T19:25:00.000-07:00Yes, the answers to many of the questions make perfect sense to me once I figure them out. Others do not make sense even once I do stumble upon out the <I>correct</I> answer. I think the instructions said something about some of the answers being nonsensical.<BR/><BR/>As to question 66: The answer is the end of the world! <BR/><BR/>:)Ben Simohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11448600123169359955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-414482498098790205.post-33336476822536105482007-11-24T10:04:00.000-07:002007-11-24T10:04:00.000-07:00Very Very addictive.<BR/><BR/>Some questions were very well framed...you would find that "AHA moment" as you understand the reasoning...particularly Q.40...couldn't make it through the bomb of Q66 though.<BR/><BR/>I am going to make this as a first "outside of topic" post on my blog and pull-in the "test automaters" to attempt this puzzle.Ankurhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07196171653335094283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-414482498098790205.post-62086051968208585322007-11-23T00:28:00.000-07:002007-11-23T00:28:00.000-07:00Okay, I take that back.

I'm having a hard time passing question 15! For some reason, I don't see a correlation between a horse and my keyboard...<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I'm addicted to it like everyone above.

Anyway, allow me to thank your kids for sharing this with you and in turn, thank you for sharing this quiz with other fellow testers via your blog.:)<BR/><BR/>You are absolutely right. This quiz is very very addictive and tickles your brain's gray matter! Yesterday I tried it once again after taking my dinner. And I could reach Qu# 40. [Don't Touch the Pink!]. But I seem to have stuck at that question! :) My tester's 6th sense (if there is any such thing!) keeps telling me that there must be some bridge to jump to the Next button. May be, I should give it another try. The thing that frustrates me most is the fact that I am NOT able to use my SKIP option even though I have one. <BR/><BR/>Anyway, I will try again tonight after my dinner. Lets see how many dinners does it take before I can complete this quiz. :)<BR/><BR/>In the mean while, wishing you a great Thanksgiving day.<BR/><BR/>-DebasisDebasis Pradhanhttp://software-testing-zone.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-414482498098790205.post-44748906975923755472007-11-21T11:00:00.000-07:002007-11-21T11:00:00.000-07:00Hi Debasis,<BR/><BR/>I bet you'll need to take many dinner breaks before you reach the end of the quiz. <BR/><BR/>I'm currently stuck on clipping the toe nails. I can't click them fast enough with my notebook's touchpad. I'll have to try a real mouse.<BR/><BR/>BenBen Simohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11448600123169359955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-414482498098790205.post-5212589500472834902007-11-21T10:58:00.000-07:002007-11-21T10:58:00.000-07:00The answer to 56 is shown a few questions earlier when it tells you to remember.Ben Simohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11448600123169359955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-414482498098790205.post-8229775842180933132007-11-21T10:51:00.000-07:002007-11-21T10:51:00.000-07:00I did not create the quiz. My children found it online and got me hooked. You can click the credits box at the start or the link below the quiz in the blog for info about its creators.<BR/><BR/>I thought it was worthy to share with software testers as a thinking exercise. It is fun, addictive, and very frustrating.Ben Simohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11448600123169359955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-414482498098790205.post-60801451501596071402007-11-21T08:14:00.000-07:002007-11-21T08:14:00.000-07:00Hi Ben,<BR/><BR/>I am running short of words to appreciate you for this excellent quiz! I just notice this post roughly 10 minutes back and am only 12 questions through (after a LOT of retries). I am not going to give up until I see the last question of this quiz. I am going to take my dinner now. Will comment once again once I succeed in completing this quiz. Just thought of conveying my happniness and thank you for this awesome effort.<BR/><BR/>Happy Testing...<BR/>-Debasis.Debasis Pradhanhttp://software-testing-zone.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-414482498098790205.post-36407197495385347552007-11-20T22:37:00.000-07:002007-11-20T22:37:00.000-07:00What the hell is the answer to question 56?!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-414482498098790205.post-12855448738549210682007-11-18T00:44:00.000-07:002007-11-18T00:44:00.000-07:00<I>Precision readingRequirements interpretationPersistence<BR/>Exploratory learningDomain knowledgeHeuristic based problem solving<BR/>A good sense of humorCritical analysisLooking at problems from many anglesRecognizing contextUnderstanding the software platformAgilityTroubleshootingWorking under pressureA good memory, or good note taking skillsand don't be easily offended<BR/>Give it a try.</I><BR/><BR/>Yeah!
