Happy Tester’s Day!
Tomorrow, September 9th, is Tester’s Day, and we would like to congratulate all professionals involved in the world of Testing and Software Quality!
Grace Murray Hopper is often mistakenly credited with recording the first computer error while working at Harvard University. Working with a Mark II on September 9, 1947, engineers found a moth hooked to one of the computer’s relays that prevented the computer from functioning. The moth went down in computer history, as Grace Murray Hopper left the following notation in the computer’s activity log book: “First actual case of bug being found”. It was there that the term bug appeared for the first time, along with the word “debugging” (which literally means to eliminate a bug), and which today is used to describe the process of identifying and eliminating bugs that cause errors in programming.
That is why September 9 is known as Tester’s Day. The day of well known profession in Taxitronic and of which we feel enormously proud.
Happy Tester’s Day to all testers and especially to our great team of professionals!
Keep calm and continue testing!
