    I would also like that shirt! (Of course, I have so many T's already, I doubt I would buy it - but if there were to be a contest or something...)

    "QA" is not a verb.

    And yes, I would like a copy of the T-shirt, too.

    I want a shirt with Jon's slogan!

    Slogans are models. Even Jon's more detailed slogan is a model. And as a model it is wrong. It is useful, but still wrong. ;-)

    Perhaps "Life is too short for manual testing" is better as a slogan -- and on a t-shirt.

    Let the machines do the grunt work and let the people think up stuff for the machines to do.

    Debugging sucks while Testing Rocks!!!!
    While Testing find the bug, debugging finds the cause, hence both are important.
    Expecting more useful content from this blog.

    Hi Harry,
    When We enter https://www.google.com/analytics/ it gets re-directed to www.google.com
    Does your team has any idea why this is happening ?? It would have been fine if we expect that user does not enter the url directly but the url is in my browser history and for last few days I could not find the cause and when I tried giving the url as http://www.google.com/analytics/ it worked fine. Is this a bug or any security feature ??

    I am posting it here as this is offical google testing blog and your team may be able to answer the questions. Waiting for your reply.

    Thanks Harry

    "Life's too short to spend time trying to emulate a computer."

    Like people have said, smart humans are good at figuring out the tests. We're pretty good at coding them, but in general we're pretty bad at following sequences of steps, exactly the same way every time. It's just not fun or creative! But good testing needs to be done in a boring, repetitive, reproducible way, all the time...things computers are great at. They love boring work, the more boring and repetitive, the better!
