The CORE
What are we testing? REQUIREMENTS.
We can talk for hours about what they are (holds some value to some person at a certain point in time etc),... but in the CORE ; requirements and software testing is all about THÍS:
| # | Rules are there to be broken | Rules are there to be followed | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pros | Cons | Pros | Cons | |
| 1 | Encourages creativity and innovation | Can lead to chaos and unpredictability | Ensures stability and order | May suppress creativity |
| 2 | Challenges outdated systems | Risks disrespecting traditions or values | Builds trust and reliability | Can preserve outdated structures |
| 3 | Promotes individual freedom | May undermine collective safety | Provides safety and protection | Limits individual freedom |
| 4 | Sparks progress and change | Can be seen as arrogance or rebellion | Simplifies decision-making | Can promote blind obedience |
| 5 | Breakthroughs often come from rule-breaking | Not everyone is skilled enough to judge when to break | Keeps groups aligned and efficient | Might block necessary change |
| 6 | Prevents blind conformity | Might cause legal or ethical trouble | Reduces conflict and ambiguity | May slow down innovation |
| 7 | Encourages critical thinking | Can confuse or mislead others | Respects traditions and culture | Risks stagnation or irrelevance |
| 8 | Inspires courage and bold action | Sometimes wastes energy on conflict | Provides a fair and equal framework | May ignore unique circumstances |
| 9 | Creates unique identity | May isolate the individual from groups | Creates predictability | Can lead to boredom or apathy |
| 10 | Opens the door to new possibilities | Can harm trust if done recklessly | Protects against reckless behavior | May discourage bold action |
an input field, the maximum value is 100... be creative, try 101
a AVG/GDPR rule... try to... validate it... don't cause legal trouble
