Explaining testing to a non-tester

First published 05/11/2009

we're stood in a boat ankle deep in water. the cannibals are coming to kill and eat us. The testers are looking for the holes in the boat saying – we can't push off yet the river is full of hungry crocodiles.

The testers are saying – if we push off now, we'll all die.

The skipper is saying – if we don't push off soon, we'll all die.

I'ts the same with software.
