Nothing to do with scuba, and if you did any operational work you'd know that it's in the category of tools that are often flaky due to lack of QA. It's also worth noting that the link you provide only shows 41 listings, and most of those merely mention "familiarity with QA" in some boilerplate for what's obviously a developer position. Leet reading skills you have there. Percentage-wise, there are fewer true QA positions there than we have E-10s. For a company that hires 10K a year, that's indistinguishable from zero.

In other words some small percentage of the company, none of it near me. All of the systems that the profitable parts of Facebook rely on - to provision systems, monitor systems, store data, move data around, analyze data, etc. - rely entirely on developer testing. So here's an amended statement to make you happy.
"99.9% of Facebook has no QA, and the rest has really bad QA."
- KaiserPro 6y agoThats not what you said originally was it? just over 10% of job openings have something to do with testing or QA. Of course QA is similar to software engineering, the whole point is to automate testing. > [AR/VR, Oculus, portal and workplace..][..is] some small percentage of the company yeah, go look at the headcount. > none of it near me. Now we are talking. > rely entirely on developer testing again, that wasn't the distinction I was making. It doesn't matter who's testing, so long as it gets done properly. Considering PE is a blended role. Its not a hard push to think that testing might be part of the role of a modern developer. Mind you, so is writing documentation, but thats not a priority either.
