What have software testing and the Giza pyramid in common?

Well more than you might think!!

First of all, when a software tester goes through a thinking process many times their perspectives and insights shift from left to right or up or down.

Let me ask you this: do you think the Giza pyramid was a tomb for a Pharaoh?

If you do think so, I'd suggest you to watch this video first. Especially mind the 6 minutes and 5 seconds moment where the creator of the video states: IF A PIECE OF IT DOESN'T WORK, IT DOESN'T  WORK.

This aspect is many many times the case when developing software.

Give the video a try and see if your mindsets and views are changing during watching....

If it happens, remember this moment the next time you're testing a functionality or module of an software information system...
