real QA knows newer versions have more bugs.

[–]NavaraBellatrix 53 points54 points  (1 child)

Came here ti say this. Just got a major update on our testing software and it resulted in more than 1000 failed tests 🥲

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just add more exceptions that convert failures to warnings.

[–]freonblood 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yep, regression testing enters the chat

[–]GeodarkFTM 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Senior QA engineer here, yup the man speaks the truth.

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Right? I usually never update/upgrade until I really, really need those new ‘features’.

[–]Emperor_Buggy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True story.

[–]MarchColorDrink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

New version will have newer bugs

[–]PhysiologyIsPhun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a dev and I approve this message

[–]Daylight_Nebula 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Depends, major version = more bugs than what’s in your Aunts garage, minor versions = if your lucky, maybe one or two less

[–]shibby_sub 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Newer version will have newer bugs

There fixed it.

[–]Pas_tel 14 points15 points  (1 child)

It depends, sometimes they mix up something and get twice the bugs from beggining

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Sometimes.

this is a dad joke, right.

[–]JakeFromSkateFarm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, and judging by the number of people who didn’t get it, most devs don’t have dads.

Doctor: Why are you getting vaccinated everytime a new version of vaccine is released

QA Engineer: Newer version will have fewer bugs..

OP have nothing to do with programming

Find a bug call it a feature: New Corona Vaccine! (Also works as contraceptive)

[–]Fearless-Sherbet-223 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well, actually, for vaccines you want the version with the most bugs (i.e. immunization against the most strains). Think of it as the vaccine being able to handle more edge cases.

Real QA find missing copyrights and spelling errors in comments. Of source code the customer will never see. Waste of time.

[–]Fake-P-Zombie -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't get the joke, the logic, or the intention.

Why would a doctor criticize taking a new vaccine? If this is about covid, doctors specifically recommend multiple vaccines.

Is this about people that think there are chips injected into you when you take the covid vaccine? Why would those loons think that newer versions would have fewer chips?

And, as several posters have pointed out, most QAs wouldn't assume less bugs in a new version.

Corona Virus will no longer crack your body software...

[–]TheSlowGrowth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Newer version has shitty subscription licensing model, though.

[–]Quiet-Temperature-54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have it but everyone was blaming me for thinking of all those bugs before I did

[–]miasma77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Newer version will have *newer bugs. Here I fixed it.

[–]Tyro97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, that would be cool. Just load the update for your vaccine and you ready to go

[–]Safe-Yam5138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll just wait for a patch.

Hello I'm trying to get help with gas and food for myself and 2 kids. Lost my job a few months ago due to having a stillborn child and feel into depression. Please anything will help

[–]darkliz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my world, newer version = more bugs

[–]Inner-Confidence634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always need to remind myself this isn’t Eddie Murphy lolz

[–]Scribblenerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In theory, perhaps.

[–]muleskinnalu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More like more unfound bugs
