Hire me. I'm really fucking good at load testing.

Exactly, but the lowest level of an accepted "tester" out in the industry is so fucking low it's actually comical.

What I expect from testers is communication skills, business domain knowledge, presentation ability, good written language skills, at least some understanding of the technologies involved, some scripting ability, some database knowledge, the ability place themselves in different roles, root cause analysis ability, critical thinking etc...
Too often the people who I am expected to coach or enable, or apply to me for jobs have none of the above. But they can read a document, write some test steps and run them, so call themselves testers and people see these types of testers out there and accept those limits, which tarnishes all of us in this business and makes life more difficult for the good testers and QA.


I totally agree with all that, but then I expect most of that from anyone working in any aspect of software delivery and wouldn't single out testers specifically. Indeed I've met shedloads of developers who can churn out code, thus meeting the minimum requirement to call themselves developers, but who couldn't (or wouldn't!) understand a business process to save their lives thus delivering shite software by any meaningful metric.

Anyway, it seems we agree on what a good tester should be doing which is a relief as I was genuinely beginning to question my own understanding of the industry there for a minute! :D

Awesome :) That's all I was trying to say, nothing more sinister than that :D

If your interested, pm me and I can chat about what I actually do a bit more off the board. I don't like to be too specific out in the open for obvious reasons, but it's always good to talk to people in the industry :)
(that goes to you too Mr Dave. We are actually in desperate need for QAs with good automation skills at the moment if you fancy a change of scenery! :D )

Aye, apologies, I seemed to get the bizarre impression that you were denying what a system tester even was, rather than just talking about what made a good system tester. I'm a tit, is basically what I'm saying.

What you need to do is go and work for every enterprise software company ever. Because I've yet to find one that has the ability to back up any of its scaling numbers with anything other than a confused look and "Well, it should work OK with that many [nodes|devices|users|countries|mailboxes]".

Because there is only one way to make sure, and the cheapest way to do that is to bullshit until you find a mug willing to try it for real and pay for it at the same time ;)

Haha. Not so much. We have a tendency to....not really pay for things very much at all.

One of our suppliers we negotiated an unlimited licence agreement and global support contract with in 2001. At this point their product was in its infancy and we had approximately 500 units deployed. Every year renewal rolls around and we refuse to negotiate right up until the last minute when they invariably cave in and allow us to renew support and licencing at exactly the same price as before. We currently have over 50,000 units deployed globally and we're still paying the same as we were over a decade ago.

One of our shiny bits of sale guff had the term "infinitely scalable" on it. Our product really, really wasn't.

I wrote a program to help with Risk Assessments which was to help small businesses to manage small, repetitive jobs. Management then decided to try and pitch it to a company that did repairs on oil rigs and pipelines and tried to convince them that this bit of software would cover all the Health & Safety requirements. Thankfully, it never went ahead.

Vertical scale is theoretically infinite, isn't it? Until you run out of electricity, at least.

What? No. I think you have your definitions backwards. Horizontal scalability is adding nodes (think web layers), vertical scalability is beefing up existing nodes (think non-clustered databases).

That's just scalability in terms of throwing hardware at it though. Doesn't help you in the event that you have actual scalability issues in the software. Such as a panicked vendor having to rush us a software patch when they realised the number of devices we had deployed was creeping above the 32,000 mark....

Well, any perfectly-designed piece of software can only hope to be scaled by one of those two mechanisms. The imperfect ones, of course, are something different.

:this:

We had made decisions earlier that made proper horizontal scaling really hard - it was much easier to just replace hardware with ever-beefier hardware. Of course, you hit a limit there pretty quick, unless yopu have a spare Cray sitting around.

I know. What's stopping you throwing MOAR RAMS at your one uber-box?

I've never found a server that can support infinite RAM. Plus your app might be CPU, network I/O, or backplane I/O bound anyway, and I've never seen a single server with infinite amounts of those either.

"Theoretically".
Anyway, I'd just get them from the same place that makes infinite servers for you, and host them at the infinite datacenter - at least I wouldn't need to pay extra for the IPv∞ network ;)

Couple of months then.

There's going to be a massive backlog... suddenly everyone gives a shit. Once you can order a cased Model B in under a month don't even bother worrying about XBMC - it'll be ready.

I sold my Raspberry Pi after a week because I couldn't get it to work.

Still, I got double what I paid for it in the first place, which was nice. (I never intended to profiteer, incidentally.)

Mine turned up last week, I extracted a Linux ISO onto a 16GB SD and it worked a treat.

Ordered a 32GB from memorybits a week ago and its still not here :roll: (the 16GB is out of my camera)

What I need to do next is get a screen that takes HDMI or get a DVI adaptor, I had it plugged into my TV for the test.

All in a nice thing to have, I had to wait at least 5 months for it though.

Don't have the technical ability, basically. Knew it wasn't plug and play, but didn't expect it to be so difficult to get working.

The big question is, will they now do a cut-down version called Electron while beefing up the main one to Master [128|Compact]?

Wait, there was a Model C, wasn't there?

You plug it in, get it to work, exclaim a few times that "IT'S A COMPUTER! AN ACTUAL WORKING COMPUTER! FOR THIRTY POUNDS! BARGAIN!" and then unplug it all, put it away in a drawer and leave it there.

Only if you're a cynical, uninventive bastard. ;)

I intend to use mine as a media centre (using Raspbmc). :)
