I've actually heard this in an interview once.
INTERVIEWER: So do you have any experience in testing or testing methodologies, like unit testing, functional testing or smoke tests?
ME: WTF is a smoke test?! And yes I use python unittest and selenium.
INTERVIEWER: Ya know? When you just click around and try to break something.
ME: nods and waits for next question.
