>I like to write code and test! Breaking code is something I am very good at so other developers like to give his/her application to me for the once over before shipping to SQA. The big joke some developers liked was when a client would call with a complaint due to software failure. The developer would say ”what did you do”? The user would respond and the developer would come back with “You should never hit that combination of keys”! Why do some people dislike some developers!

Reminds me of a client I had a while back - his very first step in testing was to lean on the keyboard, pressing as many keys as possible. His attitude was that as professional developers, we would have tested that the application worked to his specification before we proceeded to customer acceptance testing, so what he was going to do was test the weird & wonderful things that real users do, rather than what they ought to do.
