I&rsquo;ve been more deliberate in my testing on this project, less monkey-at-a-keyboard and more creative thinking about how it might be broken. I&rsquo;m testing things that aren&rsquo;t necessarily documented in the requirements. I got some push-back about it, that we should only be documenting (and even running) tests that have written requirements. That&rsquo;s basically telling me that I shouldn&rsquo;t do a thorough job because someone else didn&rsquo;t do a thorough job. And that&rsquo;s not how I want to work.</p>
