"I thought that testing would be an increasingly ineffective way
of removing errors from [programs getting larger]. I did not realize
that the success of tests is that they test the programmer,
not the program. (...)
"My basic mistake was to set up proof in opposition to testing,
where in fact both of them are valuable and mutually supportive ways
of accumulating evidence of the correctness and serviceability
of programs."
