Hexagram 2: Testing
Image:
Much time is spent on the test machine -- little of value is gathered.
Judgement:
The hexagram shows the tape drive over the bit bucket. Though the boot tape moves, the test program blows up. The Wise One takes up his listings and walks away to test another day. Only the fool tries to take a dump.
Moving Lines:
- Line 5 -- The boot tape moves. The Wise One rejoices in small favors. Under pressure, he may integrate.
- Line 1 -- All test results move into the deepest level of the bit bucket. All hint of success recedes, the dump will not be favorable. The Wise One contemplates deepest mysteries at his desk.
