What did you think my question was?

I am an Onsite Customer. I sit in front of X, and think of a new test
T. I type in its criteria, hit a button, and it fails. I mark it as
"should fail", and add it to this iteration.

My teeming crew of programmers run all my tests, skipping T, until one
of them draws T on a card, and makes it pass. From then on, all
programmers pass T.

When I view T in X, it displays as passing. I add more similar tests,
to check they also pass, and leave them online.

Who here has enough experience to compare when X is an office suite
application, like Word or Excel, and when X is a Wiki?

I am aware that the only engine anyone in the Agile movement is
_allowed_ to use is FIT...
