Damage Testing
It seems the US Federal
Aviation Administration
(FAA) has a unique device
for testing the strength of
windshields on airplanes.
The device is a gun that
launches a dead chicken at a
plane's windshield at
approximately the speed the
plane flies.
The theory is that if the
windshield doesn't crack
from the carcass impact,
it'll survive a real
collision with a bird during
flight. It seems the British
were very interested in this
and wanted to test a
windshield on a brand new,
speedy locomotive they're
developing.
They borrowed the FAA's
chicken launcher, loaded the
chicken and fired. The
ballistic chicken shattered
the windshield, went through
the engineer's chair, broke
an instrument panel and
embedded itself in the back
wall of the engine cab. The
British were stunned and
asked the FAA to recheck the
test to see if everything
was done correctly.
The FAA reviewed the test
thoroughly and had one
recommendation: "Use a
thawed chicken."

Importance of System Testing
A developer/tester
convention was being held.
On the train to the
convention, there were a
bunch of developer majors
and a bunch of tester
majors. Each of the
developer majors had his/her
train ticket. The group of
testers had only ONE ticket
for all of them. The
developer majors started
laughing and snickering.
Then, one of the testers
said, "here comes the
conductor" and then all of
the testers went into the
bathroom. The developer
majors were puzzled. The
conductor came aboard and
said "tickets please" and
got tickets from all the
developer majors. He then
went to the bathroom and
knocked on the door and said
"ticket please" and the
testers stuck the ticket
under the door. The
conductor took it and then
the testers came out of the
bathroom a few minutes
later.
The developer majors
felt really stupid. So, on
the way back from the
convention, the group of
developer majors had one
ticket for the group. They
started snickering at the
testers, for the whole group
had no tickets amongst them.
Then, the tester lookout
said "Conductor coming!" All
the testers went to one
bathroom. All the developer
majors went to another
bathroom. Then, before the
conductor came on board, one
of the testers left the
bathroom, knocked on the
other bathroom, and said
"ticket please."
Lesson learned: Any test
that passed in unit testing
can fail in system testing.

I Hate My Job
On your way home from work,
stop at your pharmacy and go
to the thermometer section.
You will need to purchase a
rectal thermometer made by
Johnson and Johnson. Be very
sure you get this brand.
When you get home, lock your
doors, draw the drapes, and
disconnect the phone so you
will not be disturbed during
your therapy. Change to very
comfortable clothing, such
as a sweat suit and lie down
on your bed. Open the
package and remove the
thermometer. Carefully place
it on the bedside table so
that it will not become
chipped or broken. Take out
the material that comes with
the thermometer and read it.
You will notice that in
small print there is a
statement: "Every rectal
thermometer made by Johnson
and Johnson is personally
tested. " Now close your
eyes and repeat out loud
five times: "I am so glad I
do not work for quality
control at the Johnson and
Johnson Company.
