Product testing in single day?

Can a product be certified and released within 1-day of automated testing?

This is a goal Google Test Engineering group is talking about setting for themselves. Patrick Copeland, Test Engineering Director at Google, talks about testing at Google in his keynote address at GTAC 2007 (Google Test Automation Conference).

Every Software Engineer (and Test Engineer) should watch the video of this talk.

Google Docs Rocks!

Google explains how Google Docs (Create and share documents, spreadsheets and presentations online.) works, with example in this Google Docs in Plain English YouTube video. check it out.

A flip for Worldcup win

India won the T20 Worldcup Final match yesterday against Pakistan. Misbah played a flip shot (he should not have done this) and a stroke of lightning luck struck Indian team. Well, Misbah must have cursed himself (and everyone else must have cursed him too..) for that shot.

Our own Bhajji also added to the frustration by giving away runs in the last few overs that turned tables in favor of Pak.

Anyways, what seemed to have been a Pakistan's turned to become an Indian one, because of one flip. In the years to come T20 Cricket can change the Indian cricket scenario (and the world's too..) dramatically.
