The Guilty Tester

In October 2019 I went to Testbash Manchester and had an Unexpo stand where I talked about guilt in software testing and collected things that people felt guilty about.

Here's the third part of me reflecting on some of the things that people wrote down.

In this episode I talk to Jesper Ottosen. We discuss traditions, open questions and how to work within contracts which are specifically requesting traditional test practices based on large numbers of test cases.

His blog is https://jlottosen.wordpress.com/ and his twitter handle is @jlottosen The intro and outro is music from the Blue Dot sessions, sourced from freemusicarchive.org

In this episode I talk to Stuart Crocker. We discuss testing in production, what happens when your ideas are challenging to others, and of course have a little discussion about acting as a gatekeeper.

The blogpost we discuss is this one here https://dragonsforelevenses.com/2018/04/27/we-have-no-evidence-to-suggest-we-shouldnt-release/

Stuart is @StooCrock on twitter if you want to follow him, which you should because he's a great guy and has some interesting ideas.
