>Well said, and precisely my point. An example I use in my testing presentation (and CoDe article, IIRC) was created by Genford Myers (well respected testing author). The program had a few pieces of branching code, a loop, and that’s about it. Could be written in most languages in about 20 lines of code. Myers calculated that it had 100 trillion different code paths. A fast tester could test that in about a billion years. :-)

Hmmm...that could really affect the product release cycle, eh?:-)
