.000 & .00

.000 & .00 ?
What makes difference !!!

We were communicating with the development team regarding this .000 & .00 matter since it was implemented.
Reader’s mind :: What is it all about, can you please explain ?

Information was >> In our application, in some areas, we have values with decimal points like ‘.0’, ‘.00’ and ‘.000’ [ Example > Rs.2,000.00/ 2,000.000/ 2,000.0]. Informed to the development team but as this was just a minor text fix, they did not consider for that particular phase. But when mail came from our client for that issue, the same issue was respected a lot. We informed our client that we had already recorded this as a concern in our ticketing system. This is not like informing to client/respecting these concerns and etc.; the main matter is on how we are communicating to development team to resolve these kinds of bugs/issues. If you ask me what the solution is for these, here it is;

Solution: If there is any code implementation for a text box/ drop-down/etc., inform the development team beforehand itself to use that functionality’s code ( for a text box/ drop-down/ browse button/ light box/ etc.) throughout the application and not for that particular object/ menu.

Hope you guys have a tension free testing hours.

To: Company's Little Leaders

When you join a company as a trainee;
- Form a Team, Lead your Team from the initial stage & Aim for a Manager Position.


A true variation among a fresher and an experience worker depends on the significance of the work we supply to our team (or) mates.



Being Practical = Being Human ?

  1. I always wanted a Quality Analyst to be well-educated in scientific research.
  2. They should have a great interest in Math and other related calculations.
  3. They need to max-up with lateral thinking and have an agile mindset.
  4. When they are busted off, the sound need to thunder other’s ears.
  5. They should substantiate their individual characters before all expects to knowledge that out.

Bug Bugger Buggest

I got a title name, all of a sudden on reading my team mate’s status message on Facebook and thought of writing a blog related to it. Before writing a blog with regards to that title, I confirmed no blog had that title but a blog had. That too in the year 2006 itself, it was written.

Title which occurred in my mind: Bug Bugger Buggest. But I’m happy, that I saw the title in one of the famous testing blog and the content was also nice.
