Tester’s Inferno: 5 Circles of Software Hell
summary
A short Nokia Platinum Partner speech lists five concrete tester sins: blind belief, black‑and‑white thinking, loss of curiosity, passing issues like a table‑tennis reply, and abandoning future growth; it names a memorable joke number (423 sins) but keeps to five real items. No tools, metrics, or case studies are shown, nothing is built or measured, and the outcome is motivational counsel rather than empirical evidence — pragmatic reminders to keep asking why and keep options.
