Unit Test This Email Form!

This is so funny, I just have to share it with you…

I tried to contact the folks at Agile Journal magazine today. The Contact Us link in the menu brought me to a form on their site, which I filled out and submitted. Within a minute I received this email…

The link in this email message brought me to another form on the CM Crossroads web site, which is the company behind the magazine. Again, I filled out this form and submitted it. Within a minute I received this email…

The CMC Media Team

It seems that the systems of CMC Media are unable to keep up with the changes at this very agile company. I pity the developers who need to write unit tests for email forms…
