Off-Topic: Bloggin' my Way To PDC (Entry)


blogging my way to pdc
(To the tune of Pinball Wizard by The Who)

Ever since I was a young boy
I wrote stuff in my blog;
Three hundred fifty posts,
If you want to read 'em all;

But at these dev conferences,
I'm never seen at all;
This game testin' whack job
Knows how to make code fall!

I sit like a statue
Become part of the machine
Checking all the inputs
Never playing clean
I test by intuition
Those bugs, I find 'em all
This game testin' whack job
Knows how to make code fall!

I'm a testin' wizard,
The bugs are in my fist!
For a testin' wizard,
Finding bugs is bliss!

(How do you think he does it?)
(Caffiene buzz?)
(Coke...it does him good...)

I test all the distractions;
I check those buzzers and bells,
I make sure lights are flashing,
I respect your sense of smell,
So what you get to play
Never fails at all.
This game testin' whack job
Knows how to make code fall!

You thought you were
The code-writing king,
But you just handed
A bug-filled mess to me...

Even on my favorite projects,
I still run my tests.
With this experience,
My tests will be the best.
So send me to the conference
And get behind the ball...
This game testin' whack job
Knows how to make code fall!
