Works on MY cloud

Works on MY cloud


For the current shift to the �cloud� I have found it necessary to update the classic �works on my computer� badge.  (I have been threatening to do this for a long time)

Many of us in the software business are very familiar with the classic response to a bug of:  �No Repro� or �Not Reproducible�

There are many reasons for these types of answers, but the most common is that I am not the developer and I am not running the software on his machines or in the same way that she did.  This resulted in the classic �works on my machine�:

WorksOnMyMachine

For the cloud era these applications are generally part of a large distributed system and that is what we are testing � many moving parts, many roles, many different systems.  Errors happen all over the place.  And everything is now a cloud.

So, my proposal has been to update the classic badge of jest to the cloud era and the �Works on my cloud� is born:
