The testing process is quite similar to criminal investigation.
It's full of analysis, logical reasoning, true and false conclusions.
And the most interesting part is when we investigate bug which are difficult to reproduce. It could be a 'heisenbug' which is too hard to reproduce, or the bug from user with no description.
Trying to investigate this or that difficult bugs I want to learn from Sherlock Holmes, the greatest detective.
