In either case, superior styles seem to be produced by necessity and accident, whereas the vanity styles never perform well under pressure. Good point, Inder.

Not only the concepts of software testing be applied for better results in martial arts, I suspect the reverse might be true as well. For instance, the following things from martial arts might be applied to software testing: 1. Know your opponent (this could be linked to knowing intricate details of the software under test) 2. Never stop learning 3. Develop your own style Inder P Singh Chris

I learn in a system, do not control it, never out grew one of the many. Western scientific approach and elusive CMA gongfu? Did you master the arts in this way? Totally out of my control, they manifest themselfs or not.

Western scientific approach and elusive CMA gongfu?
Did you master the arts in this way?

Is the pursuit of fun any less egotistical than the pursuit of <em>gongfu</em>? So fun, bodily and spiritual fitness are your test criteria.

Is the pursuit of fun any less egotistical than the pursuit of gongfu?

I like to train, just for the fun of it, just for the subjective feeling of bodily und spirituell fitness it gives me. Testing years for my ego in form of ph or sparring are mostly over, thanks god!

I think a well worn copy of The Code Complete should be on the desk of every software engineer.

While testing and such needs to be worked out in its own setting, it is certainly something to help us technology-type people get out of our deskjob mindset and apply similar ideas to our physical progress.
