Story – 1 : Disney’s Lion King

Disney company released its first multimedia CD-ROM game for children, The Lion King Animated Storybook. Sales was huge and it was “the game to buy” for children. Soon the phone support technicians were swamped with calls from angry parents with crying children who couldn’t get the software to work.

Reason: It turns out that Disney failed to test the software on a broad representation of the many different PC models available on the market. It worked on the models – that the Disney programmers used to create the game.

Mobile bug

Consider your friend’s (John) phone number is – 9981234567 and you have stored his name as John.

Now, dial the number as – 9841234567 and see what happens.

It shows your friend name – John!!!

Reason : It checks only the last 7 digits to display the name!!!

• Creative – Testing the obvious is not sufficient

• Relentless – Keep trying until you reproduce

• Automation is same as development

• Not enough if you just know java/c#-Testers should know more
