Google published 100th ‘Testing on the Toilet’ episode
‘Testing on the Toilet’ is a (crazy) magazine published within Google. Today the Google Testing Blog announced they had just published their 100th episode. But what on earth is it?
Google Testing Blog explains (back in 2007):
We want you to write more test…But, although you’ve read the books and heard the lectures, maybe you need a little more inspiration, tips, and prodding. And you need it to be in a place where when you see it, you can’t ignore it.” Testing on the Toilet” [is] one of Google’s little secrets that has helped us to inspire our developers to write well-tested code.
The magazine reaches 500 ’stalls’ worldwide (I assume this means cubicles?) and has received mixed feedback from the workforce ranging from…

to…

Anyway, to celebrate the 100th episode, it’s available to download from the Google Testing Blog. Would you put it up in your toilet?
