Hello Michael!

You can always use a serverside language to buildup the html wrapper, using a timestamp on the swf file to make the browser always think that is a new file.

I'm seeing an issue maybe some of you have run into.  IE 9 seems to be caching our Flex app swf, even after clearing the cache.  I've confirmed using Charles Proxy that sure enough, the SWF is never requested and IE 9 is using a cached version.  We can try clearing the cache all day, shutting down all windows, no luck.  BUT, using the F12 Developer Tools in IE9 and clearing the cache there DOES fix it.  Any idea why?

Hi Marisa! I agree, this terminology is common in silicon valley. In DepartmentOfDefense Land, and large manufacturing organizations that have a small software component, it's more common to see the "QA is making sure the process was followed" terminology.

[agile-testing] Re: What is the difference between QA and Test?

 

Hello Michael.

My experience with "QA"s who don't test is that they are typically involved in military or government projects, and they view their job as making sure the /process/ was /followed/.

The classic material for a "QA" with this description comes out of the Association for Software Testing -- consider, for example, the Software Quality Engineer Handbook, 3rd edition. (4th edition has a little more about testing.)

The analogy here is to Manufacturing ("factory") QA, where if you make sure you have a repeatable process, then you can, to some extent, make sure the outcome has low defects.

Sadly, software ain't an assembly line, and the metaphor falls down.

The thing is, in many environments, the customer wants to make sure some specific process is followed. And if they are writing the checks, they may choose to pay someone to make sure the process is followed. When that happens, those people tend to call themselves "QA."

We could argue all day about the meaning of process as an abstraction for creative exercise, but there are sub-cultures that do this and it's important to them, and yes they generally think they are 'above' testing.

Ok. I hope I at least explained it. :-0

regards,
