Quality Assistant
I am often asked about how I deal with my programmers on a day to day basis. The question means well, I am giving them bad news about their work. It is only natural for anyone to doubt - how this paid relationship works!? There is this joke / story I heard a while ago that could explain the tension between a developer and the QA. Here the Wife is the Developer and the Husband is the QA. Wife : (puts on a new pair of jeans) Does this make my butt look big? Husband : (just stares, if he tells her the truth, she might get mad. If she does not her friends will tell her the truth and she will still get mad) Wife : Honey, you can tell me. I won’t get mad. Husband : You say that now…. Wife : I promise I won’t get mad. You can tell me anything. We should be able to tell each other anything. Husband : OK, here it goes. I slept with your sister. That is how I typically roll. I gain their trust and then give them a bunch of bugs I found. It is not my job to make sure ever
