Adventures of a fake tester was originally intended to reflect the fakeness that occurs in software testing projects; It was intended as a series that would end after 6-8 editions, but thanks to the fake testers of the world, it has lived on to see two full years and does not seem to have an end date as I write this. Unlike many articles that actually put the reader to sleep, these set of articles have been specially designed to end before the reader starts sleeping. Over the past years, these columns in Testing Circus Magazine have witnessed thoughts about fake testing in many instances in appraisals, fake testing in interviews, corruption in software testing industry and all of these has been reproduced in this collection of articles; 3 sets of people need to be thanked for the adventures of the fake tester; 1st is the wonderful team of Testing Circus folks who have been very diligent in giving me "gentle reminders" whenever I have not been able to submit the articles on time by faking the "harshness" in their gentle reminders; 2nd is the team of all those fake testers who keep feeding me ideas and stories to write in this series; and 3rd is all of you wonderful readers who have managed to remain awake throughout these columns.
