QA here is not like everywhere else
QA here is not like everywhere else
Great benefits, free food, flexible hours, a decent workload, great perks, and a good salary.
For developers, working here would be a dream job, as long as they don't mind being responsible for the testing as well (see below).
Testing is done by developers, which means as a QA your main job is to come up with scenarios and hand those to them. As a result, the priority is to hire more developers and (to put it nicely) employ less QAs. While this makes developers be more disciplined in designing with testing in mind, it also means less chances for QAs to learn and do new things.
Use your QA team for what it's meant to do: testing the s--! out of the product and automate where it makes sense. Let developers code with unit testing in mind.
