So one of the most fun and yet boring times of a project is that end phase where you are pushing out bug fixes to the first round of testing. I think my favorite part of it all is sitting in a room with the rest of the devs and going through the list of bugs together and just making jokes about the way users write them up. For example:

Added myself as a new instrcutor. Did not save the data.

Ok, so you didn’t save the data? Or did the program not save the data. I mean more than likely it’s the latter and it is a bug, but at 8am it’s still something to make picking apart your programming go a little bit easier. And to top it all off, you didn’t even spell instructor right. Sorry Mike, I’m not a morning person and I had to pick on you.

So yeah, the next few days should be fun, for me it’s pretty much all CSS and JavaScript work, which JavaScript and ASP.NET, no matter what people may say to the contrary, is a pain in the ass. Namely in grabbing controls by their ID because of the way ASP.NET goes through and makes a unique ID for everything. Sure, it’s something that has to be done and it’s definitely easier when writing code-behind pages to have every textbox on all your controls that contains a first name be named txtFirstName, but it still makes for fun times when throwing in JavaScript to make the user experience better.

So back to work I go.
