And doubly so because that piece about <EM>Testing on the Toilet</EM> was written by Donna <STRONG>Bog</STRONG>atin.<BR/><BR/>Do you think the editor who assigned her that topic knew how "bog" is used in British slang? See discussions of <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toilet#Bog" REL="nofollow">bog</A> (wikipedia) and <A HREF="http://www.worldwidewords.org/qa/qa-bog1.htm" REL="nofollow">bog-standard</A> (World Wide Words).<BR/><BR/>If Donna were not so obviously a real person, I might have suspected her name to be a pseudonym!<BR/><BR/>--Chriscloosleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12480271885833781496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-414482498098790205.post-69670735480753493022007-06-11T16:02:00.000-06:002007-06-11T16:02:00.000-06:00Chris,<BR/><BR/>Yes, I noticed the date. :)<BR/><BR/>I wonder if Google used Waterfall methodologies to develop TiSP?<BR/><BR/>Seriously: the folks at Google have internally implemented <A HREF="http://blogs.zdnet.com/micro-markets/?p=573" REL="nofollow">Testing on the Toilet</A> to help developers learn to better test their code.

All the same, I wonder how many people will take this seriously.<BR/><BR/>We can count on someone publishing something similar every year. Last year I posted about the <A HREF="http://www.webperformancematters.com/journal/2006/4/1/waterfall-methods-past-and-ever-present.html" REL="nofollow">Waterfall 2006</A> conference, which it appears (from my browsing) some people may have believed to be a real event.<BR/><BR/>BTW, is there something particular about <EM>water</EM> that inspires this kind of parody?<BR/>--Chriscloosleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12480271885833781496noreply@blogger.com
