A small program bug worth 40 billion?

Event background

Japanese companies J-com lost more than billion yen in the first public-listed days , even though the yen was drawn in the same denomination as MINGBI,and the billion yen was worth some silver ( according to the prevailing exchange rate, About RMB billion Yuan ).

The incident was largely due to the fact that an operator was asked to "sell 1 shares of j-com" at the price of a million yen , after leaving the plate in a few minutes. and Tanaka-San in the transaction terminal after receiving the Commission mistakenly entered the "1 yen per share Price, sell the million shares."

at this point, we can imagine, the event will continue to develop what kind of disaster. However, fortunately , after 2 minutes, Tanaka-San found the error, he immediately tried to cancel the sale by the trading software, and unfortunately, due to the trading system Bug, Tanaka three consecutive withdrawal orders were rejected, and the market trading has begun, At the moment, of course, there is a disruption in the market, and finally, of course, it ends up with a huge loss of over billion yen in Mizuho Securities .

- behind billions of dollars in losses

Although this event is caused by an operator's oolong finger, if the trading system does not have a bug , then after that two minutes, the huge loss can be greatly reduced, in any case,the bug Is the objective fact that caused this loss to expand.

today, due to the Internet era of comprehensive popularization, derived from the application of the vine in all walks of life, its purpose is to bring convenience to all industries, but, many enterprises in order to allow their applications to quickly online to obtain benefits, often in the testing process "jerry-building", feel almost, no big problem on it, The bug is therefore quietly accompanied by the APP online.

and, Bug is like its "bug" the original intention, hidden deep shallow, the general test may not be able to explore the hidden deeper but may affect the larger bug, so that the APP hastily online, it is undoubtedly for users buried a * * *, If, like this time, it explodes at a critical moment, that lethality is a nuclear weapon level.

The status quo of enterprises ignoring application quality management

The appearance of "bedbugs" is bound to erode the interests of users, no matter how much in fact for a business is not to be underestimated, then check the "worm" link should not be considered as a single negligible work, developers must be responsible for users to avoid their interests due to the bug and suffer losses.

However, if the enterprise to set up a Test team, how to test the effect of how we do not discuss, just the cost of the various costs to let enterprises do not want to go to a complete testing process, often most developers in the simple test, as long as they feel no serious problems, then you can go online, and when there is a user feedback problem, they will The APP"melted down", in order to repeat, it is conceivable that the user experience greatly discounted not to say, at the same time in the user's use of the process, it is also likely due to the existence of the Bug and suffer varying degrees of loss.

at the same time, since the current law does not have a clear and sound system for such a problem, Bug caused by the user's own loss, and does not expressly allow the development of enterprises to compensate, therefore, development enterprises ( especially some outsourcing companies ) do not want to spend high costs and a lot of time to do the Bug exploration and repair , if there is no strict quality acceptance mechanism, often "muddle through", the result endless. So is this a question that cannot be reconciled?

Solve the problem

In fact, I think the solution is very simple, on the current mobile internet market, the emergence of a large number of third-party testing services, including some excellent start-up companies, they have to do their fist, for many App Development Enterprise solves the quality problem of mobile application, meanwhile, from the local application test of Google Play in USA to the one-stop quality management service of Chengdu Testbird, these quality quality management service organizations are all over the world, Developers don't have to look for it.

finding a suitable quality Management service organization is bound to significantly reduce the cost of testing for developers, using the mobile application they provide end-to-end development and testing solutions, can shorten their own App Market cycle, but also to ensure and establish the application of the quality and acceptance criteria, the elimination of the Bug is of course, enterprises have why not?

want to earn " hundred billion", go to pinch off that little program Bug it!
