"There’s a danger [in] getting too carried away by artificial intelligence and machine learning without understanding the underlying economics of the marketplace," says @StanfordGSB's Amit Seru.

Remember, folks - the goal is quality - not testing.

In your next stand-up, instead of talking about what tasks you've done or not, talk about the stories. Figure out what state the story is in, what needs to be done to complete the story, what the blockers to those things are. 1/2

We are almost ready to ship v6 within the next weeks 🙌. Be ensured that if you are already on v5 you should have no problems upgrading to v6 right away with just minor adjustments. Let us know what you are interested to see in WebdriverIO moving forward! 🚀

new post: I'm a strong proponent of extensive automated testing, but there is still an essential role for Exploratory Testing https://t.co/ZGdTaLkAMu

Exploratory testing is a vital tool to explore outside the boundary of even the best automated tests.

Hurrah! Pushing #selenium4 alpha 3 to maven right now. Contains various bug fixes, some nice integration with CDP, and the first push of "Friendly Locators", renamed to "Relative Locators". Try `RelativeLocator.withTagName` and follow the API from there!

"A real tester should not be the same as a programmer." Really? Let's turn it around, IME a *real programmer* is also a skilled tester. Testers that can't do anything else strike me as too limited. On a cross-functional team, they'll create internal bottlenecks.

Many testers seem determined to create a test silo—a secret society with a special handshake that excludes devs & other team members. That sort of exclusionary mindset seems dysfunctional to me. Same problem with #UX and other "specialties." Silos are the enemy of collaboration.

If you can't write a user story in a tweet, it's too big.

"Automate... Automation is better than Testing..." "Don't automate. Testing is better than Automation..." How do you know the above statements are incorrect without understanding the context and without seeing the actual implementation? #context #softwaretesting #testautomation

The distinction between testers and devs is entirely artificial. It comes from thinking that testers are somehow lesser than devs, so you can pay them less and need to segregate them from the high-paid (more valuable) devs. That's nonsense. Devs & testers are the same people.

Final advice from @DorothyGraham in her last #STAREAST session (1 of 2): -Working relationships are very important -Life is not problem-free, be open for surprises -Working for yourself if fun, scary, and hard work -Discuss, share freely - it’s how you get feedback
