Happy tester's day!
According to legend, September 9, 1945, scientists at Harvard University, who tested the Mark II Aiken Relay Calculator computer, found a moth stuck between the contacts of an electromechanical relay and Grace Hopper uttered the term. The extracted insect was pasted into the technical diary, with the accompanying inscription: “First actual case of bug being found” (Eng. “The first case in practice when a bug was discovered”). This funny fact laid the foundation for the use of the word “bug” in the meaning of “error”.
