I worked with a dev who was assigned to a full-time QA duty by the management. Sort of development pre-QA tester if you will. Guess what? He filed over 200 (two hundred) bug reports within a couple of weeks. Major ones. Other devs never complained, the management was ecstatic, but the guy still quit few months later because they refused to release him from QA duty and back into the development.
- salemh 15y agoCurious if you can expand on your thoughts / experience related to Developers on QA duties, versus a "Developer in Test" designing the frameworks for automation (or, would that be company dependant?) The difficulty in recruiting SDET'S / SET's is...ridiculous (though some companies don't different between a strong automation QA and a mid-SDET), however, as a single EG, a top-3 financial firm's Developer in Test positions (agnostic on languages) were the highest paid developers in the company (sans HFT). They were also held to the most strict of hiring standards (target school, Masters, 3.+ GPA, summa cum laude, stable work history of 3-5 years at a time with companies, etc.)
