True, she has a point, but it is still very annoying to mark a software project as failed because of a readme for unzipping a file?
Thats like killing a fly with a nuclear war head. Any dev will be furious, it shows the tester cant unzip a file?! And if she can, couldn’t she just write the damn instruction if she feels the need than bug a dev to write a doc on how to unzip a file
You have a zip file and nothing else, what do you do with it? -
@qlasico Nah, she has the hots for the op! ;)
I once worked with an obsessive tester who was bent on ‘testing’ the README file of a Software Distribution.
The README text file was in the distribution zip, so she had to unzip the thing before reading the file, however she insisted that her test result was a failure because there was no README that shows her how to unzip the distro to read the README!
I thought she was joking, but she was dead serious and escalated the ‘issue’ to the manager! I was furious, almost resigned from the project
In the end I had to suck it up and tolerated more weeks of her mindless obsession!
