The result was 'Speedy delete, G7: One author who has requested deletion or blanked the page. The author agreed to deletion on the article's talk page. I am aware that closing an AfD in which I have commented would normally be unacceptable, but this case it seems to me to be completely uncontroversial, and an IAR close seems the most straightforward way of finishing the issue. Anyone who disagrees is free to revert my closure. JamesBWatson (talk) 11:40, 15 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete At present, the article contains no more than a definition, and Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Earlier versions contained a link concerning a person who has been the subject of much of the editing of the author of this article, indicating clearly that the purpose was promotion. Either way, the article comes nowhere near satisfying Wikipedia's inclusion criteria. I also see no reason to think that the subject "Puzzles in software testing" is notable: there can be puzzles in any sphere of human activity, and nothing I have seen suggests that there is any particular recognition of "Puzzles in software testing" as a topic in its own right.
