I feel where you're coming from, but in reality it's not like any test suite can guarantee to prevent downtime caused by bad deploys. All it takes is a little networking related bug, something that differs ever so slightly between environments, whatever, and your site could be down. I agree with the other replies that while you may be the 'technically right dev' kind of person, it still comes of as being a dick and you will likely not get a positive response from something like this, especially if you caused it. What makes it more reasonable to say it's the company's responsibility to protect you from fucking up the site instead of you just being a good developer, and not fucking up the site?
