our best QA engineer: googlebot

Wednesday, November 21st, 2007

I noticed something while looking at our server logs; a large number of exceptions are thrown as a result of the googlebot visiting the pages where they occur.. So it is allowing us to find obscure bugs that are data-specific that will be a nightmare to find otherwise. While the impact is low, I thought it was amusing to see google doing some of our QA for us.
