Karnataka state missing from Indian government website

Sat, 21 Feb 2009 19:45:03 GMT

While I wanted to search about some information about Bangalore and Karnataka, I found the official Indian Government website. To my surprise, under the government contacts page, I found Karnataka missing. The IT capital missing from the Indian Government's website is a huge problem. These bugs threaten the value of the product. Traditional software development and testing practices would end up producing these kinds of problems and the future might be more dark. One of the ways to tackle that would be by changing the way we do things, agile and rapid software testing approaches can be the ones. Think about it and make the future brighter.

Exploratory Testing - Learning a product quickly with less information

Mon, 06 Oct 2008 07:45:00 GMT

This video, as usual, is of series of demonstrations of the power of exploratory testing from Pradeep Soundararajan ( http://testertested.blogspot.com ) and Consultant Software Tester from Bangalore, India. In this video, Pradeep along with two other testers, Ajay Balamurugadas and Ravisurya demonstrate the power of exploratory mode and quick learning that can happen even with little information in hand by taking an Open Source Project that needed some kind of testing to be done. Testing is about learning a product. If scripts and test cases define the learning for a tester then the learning turns out to be not good enough.
