Many developers seem to lack a focus on automation in the most basic sense of the word as well. While consulting, I see lots of backend developers constantly making a change, waiting for the server to reload with the new changes, switch to Postman/cURL/whatever, fire off their request and see if it's accurate. Rather than just having the request handler as a function that is under test with assertions, and have the test re-run on each change. So much time during a developers day is spent on just repetition, and they don't seem to care.
