The noon demo

What went wrong

A fictional office setting for The noon demo.

The investor skips the forty screens. Otto offers to demonstrate first, but nobody has agreed on what the button should do.

With two questions

A fictional office setting for The noon demo.

Q asks:

  1. What should one click do?
  2. What would show that it worked?

Ollie writes the expected action beside the button and checks it against that result before the demo. The test has a clear target.
