Not using swear words was a big change I had to make when going from working alone as a freelancer to working with other engineers and testers. Where I work we delegated some frontend stuff to a team last year who would test with things like “God damned” and when I saw that I realized how much I’d matured as my first thought was, “unprofessional.”

One team I worked on put a profanity filter in the source code checkin filter so that we could put curse words in whatever code we were writing and make sure it didn't get merged until that code was refactored.

  • How tolerant was it against typos? For example: "fuk". Or did it contain every variation already?
