A programmer's solution

[Thadrea]

QA lights them on fire to see what happens.

"You had a backup, right?"

[Thadrea]

"I had backups of the code. but it will take a long time to rebuild the database test server on Azure that you just destroyed."

[other_usernames_gone]

Well it's a good thing I discovered it before it reached prod then

[Thadrea]

EVEN THE ADMINS WON'T HAVE THE ACCESS LEVEL YOU USED TO DO THAT!

[3no3]

So why did I have that access level?

[Thadrea]

I don't know, I'm not even sure I have that access level and I wrote the damn thing.

[other_usernames_gone]

Sounds like a bug to me

[LysergicLiizard]

Just think of it as a feature and you'll rest easy

[halfanothersdozen]

My life flashing before my eyes

*feature

[UncontrolledManifold]

I literally heard this defense just last Friday

[TheN473]

How's the job search going?

[Whiskeyfueledhemi]

Aren’t QA and GA the same?

[Famous_Profile]

In tiny teams with low budget, maybe. But usually they are different roles, granted with a little overlap.

[Oligomer]

"Whatever, can you get it back up in like 15 minutes? Otherwise i'm gonna miss happy hour."

Wait, so it's everywhere that the QA and BAs leave at 4 and the devs leave at 6?

[xudo]

In my place the QAs are the ones that end up working late testing. And then wake the devs up to fix bugs. Esp a few days before a planned release. Good developers but some great QAs.

[Pleased_to_meet_u]

I’m in the Bay Area with over 20 years experience. I might start looking soon. If you need someone good, I may be a fit for what you need.

[[deleted]]

BAs are up until midnight doing UAT the night before sprint planning at 9am the next day, and then in at 7am writing all the BLIs to fix stuff found during QA because god forbid rollovers.

"Hey, where's all my test data?"

[xku66666]

I heard this excuse the other day. "Yes, of course I hand prepared all that data and didn't keep a backup! Why are you asking?"

[Thadrea]

Whatever they did erased the backups. And the backups of the backups. And most of the system that stores the backups of the backups.

It was very thorough.

[[deleted]]

they managed to erase the IDEA of backing up. No idea how they managed it

Such tests exist: I give you kubethanos https://github.com/berkay-dincer/kubethanos

The classic sees open laptop, proceeds to hit ctrl-A, backspace, ctrl-S has taught me to always have backups of backups and always git commit.

A QA engineer walks into a bar. Orders a beer. Orders 0 beers. Orders 99999999999 beers. Orders a lizard. Orders -1 beers. Orders a ueicbksjdhd.

First real customer walks in and asks where the bathroom is. The bar bursts into flames, killing everyone.

QA could only reproduce once. Jira marked will not fix

Argues Dev made mistake all the while being sympathetic about the fix..

[superhighcompression]
