  1. @testobsessed Also, @can_test had a neat example of exploratory testing around unit tests. Did you read his post on ET this week?
  2. My daughter is teh awesum. Decorated Girl Scout cookie. twitter.com/aJimHolmes/sta…
  3. @testobsessed I'm a programmer first and only newly self-identifying as a tester. I'd want to know WHAT exploratory is!
  4. New @ Telerik Blog: Performance Testing Part I – Modeling, Implementing, and Executing… goo.gl/fb/B9yzY
  5. Really interesting read on data complexities. RT @workroomprds: Blogged: Looking for Trouble in Big Data - bit.ly/KabqfN
  6. @searls @testdouble Nah, make it a Singleton, but implement the Expandable interface.
  7. Fallout New Vegas is as much fun as punching myself in the face.

  10. @StevenJV Awesome! Glad you're pleased!
  11. Is it a best practice to go around saying there are no best practices?
  12. Exchanging insults with kids. My best so far: "May a giant flock of sparrows mistake you for a windshield."
  13. Trying to learn a little Keb' Mo' today. Fingers very sore. youtube.com/watch?v=NhgA6r…
  14. @julielerman Nearly same here. Put down 10 bags compost, 6 of cow poo, lots of weeding, and hoeing. No planting today. Too hot here.
