Testers will be testers…….................

Saturday, October 3, 2009 by Jassi | 2 comments
I had to book tickets for some family tour at the end of this month.

As we were not able to get tickets from IRCTC, the most preferred site,I decided to try RAILTICKETONLINE.

But I had to register first……………….

While trying to register on RAILTICKETONLINE, the first thing I observed was there was a spelling mistake in the word “registration” on the main page.

So that increased my curiosity…………………

Also reminiscing Matt’s lesson every time I test now, I started registering myself.

There was an exception at the first attempt, then a few more errors and I could register myself.

The most interesting I observed was changing the date of my desktop PC reflected on the site’s calendar……………..

I did not feel confident to buy the ticket thinking that the secure server might not be secure

But before I stopped my curious tour of this site…………..I tried to retest the update functionality to update my name and again it failed it just did not allow me to update my name.

I found all this in less than half an hour ………I wonder how this site was signed off …………………..

Avoid usage of ........... and get your post tested by testers you interact with outside your office before you publish it till you get fair enough with writing.

Take an article from somewhere and try to write it in your words without changing its meaning and you may practice like that. So there after you write your version of it would be easy to evaluate it without passing it on to other testers.

Use Spell and Grammar check.

Buy a book on writing and read it.
