There are management illusions, developer illusions, tester illusions and user illusions.The most common are:
1.Management illusions
What is testing, at all
Anybody can test
You can test in quality
Some products need no testing
Automated testing vs. exploratory testing
2.Developer illusions
My software has no bugs (or too few to care)
The testers are going to find all bugs anyway
Thorough unit testing is enough
3.Tester illusions
I am allowed to stop bad software
I need to test everything
I can test everything
If it works, it is good enough
Thorough system testing is enough
4.Customer / User illusions
Buy it and forget it
We do not need to test
Testers do not need to communicate with us
