Testers do not ensure or assure quality.To ensure something, you must control it. This is a necessary, but not sufficient condition. So, even if you control it, you may not be able to to ensure it. As a tester, I have absolutely no control over quality, therefore I cannot ensure quality. The people who could ensure quality are managers and developers. Even they can’t ensure it, but for different and more complicated reasons than those that apply to testers.(I also don’t “break the software” because it is already broken when I find it.)So, what do I do as a tester?I seek the truth, and I report the truth, about the status of the product at any given time. I do this so that the team I work for can make informed decisions about quality.If I break anything, it is the veil of illusion. I shatter the dreams of the naive. But not the product. The product is the product, before and after I test

I want to ask a question that is both simple and complex to answer: How do you write your test cases?Why do I say it is simple?Well I mean according to some definitions testers write test cases and since they do it often it should be easy. Also there is a ton of information online on how to write a test case, what should it contain, so again, easy and simple.Why do I say it is complex?Well, a PM once told me that the tests should be written in such a way that a person coming from the street should be able to run them. I mean that is not impossible to do but it will take time, a lot of time. One has to find a way to explain concepts that are not really in the day to day dictionary ( API for example).I think that they want somenthing like this When tests steps are really clear - YouTube 16What do you think?

Lean Software Development is an agile software development methodology that focuses on reducing waste and maximizing value delivery to customers. It is based on the principles of the Toyota Production System and emphasizes continuous improvement, teamwork, and customer focus.In Lean Software Development, testing is an integral part of the development process. Testing is not considered a separate phase but is instead integrated throughout the development cycle. This is because Lean Software Development emphasizes the need for continuous feedback and continuous improvement, which can only be achieved through continuous testing.Testing in Lean Software Development is carried out in various forms, including unit testing, acceptance testing, and exploratory testing. Test automation is also an essential component of Lean Software Development, as it helps to reduce waste and improve efficiency. Automated testing helps to detect defects early in the development process, which
