Test test test...I'm the devil now!!

I'm the devil. The devilish soul whom programmers like me hates to the core. The devilish soul who ruins the weekend of programmers. The devilish soul who robes the life after work from programmers. Ha ha..Its nice playing this role ~ the devilish soul. Cool isn't it to change role once in a while. To see the programmers scramble for time. Saddist am i?

Imagine using a 1.6 Ghz with just 512 MB of Ram to build. WOOOO!!! this morning, the interns came telling me they stayed till almost 12 MN just to do promotion. Well, terms over here is slightly diff from my previous company. Bascially promotion will mean to put the lastest ear to all the diff test environments. They took 3 hours to build the application. A sllllooooowwwww llllooooonnnnnggggg process. I smiled to myself. Luckily the PC which i'm having is much of a better spec and lucky me, i'm directly under the employment of SingTel. There's not many of SingTel ppl in here. 70% of the ppl here is from accenture. Well, so at least i still have a team lead to shelter the storm for us. But, this team lead is new to the project. The old team lead who kind of interviewed me already left. =( So no one knows how exactly this team lead works.

So now that i'm more familiar with the system, the devlish soul starts to surface. Didn't know i can be so mean. I rasised so so many SIRs (Service Investigation Reports)..Oh..over here, the bugs are known as SIR and are tracked by a system. The testers just ran the test scripts and report just create SIR via the system. Someone will go through the SIR and allocate it to the team of bug fixers. This program will automatically trigger emails to the relevant ppl for actions. Rather cool. Each SIR raised must be attached with a screen capture. Think this will really help the programmers when doing their bug fixes.

Releases..Seriously, i dun know how the releases are handled over here. Seems like its in a mess. One moment, its working..next moment, its not. ha ha..no idea also. So as long as i feel its wrong. Its SIR time! So bascially today till now, i raise about 30 SIRS already? Haa ha...

So why am i free now? Cos they are integrating some system and porting codes over..so testing halted for 30 mins!
