Whil Hentzen had an article in Foxtalk about a year ago on testing ideas. One that I remember is that they hire high-school students to test.

We've done worse things to our apps: the final test was laying both hands with fingers spread over the keyboard, pressing at least a dozen keys at once (with accent on the gray keys), and seeing what happens. The framework was OK if it survived without any damage to data :). The origin of this is my custom of just pressing Enter on various machines at exhibitions and fairs - half of them crash or burn after that :).
