Testing the Tester’s Pulse!

Height of frustration when our “Project Manager”/ “Team Lead” ask the following statements.

1. Are you sure, you have tested and verified the functionality?

2. Speed up and complete the sanity/regression testing soon as we need to push the latest code into the production instance.

3. It’s just a ‘Change Request’, it will take an hour to test those changes.

4. Guarantee me that, there are no bugs in this tested build.

5. I have a Client Demo within an hour/today, so just have the tasks done. Need this to be in live within the specified time-frame.

6. Are you bored on testing this application repeatedly?

7. Come on/ Plan for Saturday, Sunday or Holidays to test the application.

8. I didn’t have time to read your bug report. Just examine by yourself and close it.

9. Close all the bugs today itself and give an ideal defect report which provides a clear info. (Instead of using the term Testing.)

10. Kindly communicate with developer team and plan accordingly for all the bugs you have posted on Defect reporting tool.
