As testers, we all have favorites whose blogs we read and who we follow on Twitter. I love it when my favorites disagree, and it always makes me pay attention when I see this happen online. Disagreements can be powerful because they show us a new perspective and give new depth to a topic. I recently noticed a serious discussion on Twitter between Matt Heusser and Alan Page about code coverage metrics.
