Searching for Software Tester – Musings from Brian J. Noggle

Sometimes, on long days on the job, I hear the voice of Ben Kingsley in my mind, paraphrasing those lines from Searching for Bobby Fischer:

Bruce: Do you know what it means to have “contempt” for the software?
Brian: No.
Bruce: It means to hate it. You have to hate it, Brian, it hates you.

I’ve never actually seen the movie, but I do hear Ben Kingsley talking to me, oh yes I do.

I don’t even play chess well.

On long days, my mind just wanders.

Long nights, too, I guess.
