Good/Bad Software

It’s far too simplistic to label software as good or bad. As a tester I look at what works or what doesn’t. I don’t see it in the realm of morality and judgment. I review it in the domain of design, elegance, workability, integrity, wholeness, accomplishment, smoothness, affordance, barriers, continuity, brevity, support, assistance, ambiguity, incompleteness and so on and so on and on and on…. This makes far more complex software testing and far more ‘better’ software as viewed outside of judgment.
