Happy Limerick Day! (May 12th)

Posted on 14:39 by Unknown
The CEO where I currently work sent around the following note by email at the start of today:
Today is Limerick day. A limerick is a five-line poem with a strict form (AABBA rhyming), which intends to be witty or humorous, and is sometimes obscene with humorous intent.

Here is one from me (if you respond in kind let's stay away from the "obscene" part of the definition)!!
[..snip..]


Of course, that challenge went answered and we have had a steady stream of limericks all day!  :)

Here were some of the ones I thought up between meetings and test sessions...


(The first one is on hiring testers:)

What is Quality?
How do you check the functionality?
Provide info in a timely fashion
Prefer those with passion
Most important, you need personality!

Doing good work takes time and thought
If you think testing is easy, it is not
We apply test techniques
To see what reeks
And help the stakeholders know what's hot.

In Exploratory Testing we Learn, Design, Test.
We believe no practices are "the best"
Context helps us decide
Which approaches are tried
Until we solve the problem we do not rest.

Jerry Weinberg is an important man
Of his work and ideas I am a big fan
He helped me to learn
People are the concern
So make helping them succeed the plan


Okay, so I'm not a poet. ;-)

Can you do better?  Leave some limericks in the comments and have fun! =)

Cheers!  Paul.
