Raw Blame History

Wise words from the early days of the web explosion:

A particularly terrible idea is to offer testing jobs to the programmers who apply for jobs at your company and arent good enough to be programmers. Testers dont have to be programmers, but if you spend long enough acting like a tester is just an incompetent programmer, eventually youre building a team of incompetent programmers, not a team of competent testers…Joel Spolsky
