I avoided - or that was my intention until the game started - the 50/50s but my calf and hamstring still felt the pain the next day
Totally worth it though

that sucks, hope you get to work with a good tester/QA person at some point so you get to see what they can do
Re:Dev-Owned Testing: Why It Fails in Practice and Succeeds in Theory
on Friday January 16, 2026 @06:07PM (#46653422)
so, QA should be noticing that the testers are raising tickets like this and step in and give the testers some guidance on what/how they are testing
I've worked with a clients test team who were not given any training on the system so they were raising bugs like spam clicking button 100 times, quickly resizing window 30 times, pasting War and Peace.. gave them some training and direction and they started to find problems that actual users would be finding

They find all the things the devs and their automated tests missed, then they mentor the devs in how to test for these and they work out how the bug could have been found earlier. Rinse and repeat until the tester is struggling to find issues and has coached the devs out of his job

yes - testing gives information, what is done with that information is a business decision

how did misunderstanding a feature and writing pages on it help, not sure I follow the logic of why this made them a good QA person? Do you mean the features were not written well and so writing code for them was going to produce errors?

yes - devs are great at coding so get them to write the tests and then I, a good tester, (not to be confused with QA) can work with them on what are good tests to write. With this in place I can confidently test to find the edge cases, usability issues etc
And when I find them we can analyze how the issue could have been caught sooner
