It looks like spammers are developing an intelligence of their own. Gotta find a solution (hint H2SO4 ?) fast...

Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Definitely Spam

His answer to this QA question[^] with a very similar theme links to a commercial product.

Methinks it's kicking time.

i don't know whether it is a spam or not?
I just saw one comment("Nice Article But...") in this article,White Box Testing Technique[^]
commented by paksys.He just intimate that article credit should go to the author "Roger S. Pressman" and he tag one link to see is http://www.amazon.com/dp/0073375977/ref=as_li_ss_til?tag=paksysinfotechco&camp=0&creative=0&linkCode=as4&creativeASIN=0073375977&adid=08JV51HDAKKKBXVSTPN3</a>[^]

i just checked out, but i don't get chance to read sevent edition,I have a look at 5th edition by same author by searching it in google,
and find fifth edition in this link (http://dewiar.staff.gunadarma.ac.id/Downloads/files/13560/EBookPressman__Software_Engineering.pdf%20software%20engineering%20a%20practitioner's%20approach%20by%20roger%20s.%20pressman</a>)[^]) also you can download the book from

download it and i saw that chapter 17.3(page 444) with same heading "WHITE-BOX TESTING" looking same as the the aritcle here attached by
Robin_Roy[^](he is one of our CodeProject MVP 2010)

Not only the one you saw: White Box Testing Technique[^]
This: Black-box Testing Techniques[^]
Is also copied from the same source: PDF Download: [^]

The "Author": http://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/View.aspx?mid=5618472[^] needs a severe kicking.

I've put a note to Chris in sugs'n'bugs: http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/4950629/This-one-is-likely-to-lose-his-account-soon.aspx[^]
So if Chris gets a "reactivate account" request, he at least knows why it has been closed (assuming it does get closed, and I damn well hope so).

He got MVP that year at least partially on the basis of those!

That is a good idea. But his last post is from January 2010. So he might not care about.

OriginalGriff24-Nov-14 21:57

24-Nov-14 21:57

Indeed - but his rep graph is still rising, and he may be using it as part of his resume.
And cheating your way to an MVP? Not nice.

The question is... how many of the 20 articles are really his own

M.D.V.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Dunno - I don't really want to check them all today (I have other things I need to do) but I guess we will have to. Sigh | :sigh:

Ok - I've got twenty minutes...

Too late: his account is toast. So we can'e easily get his articles list (the browser history page reflects back to my list now)

Have to let the Hamsters sort that out! Laugh | :laugh:
