One of our developers recently reported a bug he'd found in Kentico (software we use to develop websites) Ordinarily a rather dull and unremarkable event. He was surprised however (and rather delighted) to receive an e-mail from them a few days later telling him that due to his discovery they'd planted a tree in his honour. It even has a label with his name on it!
Its called "Trees for bugs'
-
Each tree is listed in their Tree Gallery and marked on Google maps so it can be visited.
-
So far they've planted a total of 440 trees
-
They have a league table for bugs by team.
-
Twice a year their developers have to go and plant a tree for each of the bugs they're responsible for.
What a great idea, the environments a winner. It makes finding bugs fun. Its good PR and marketing and it keeps the programmers on their toes!
