How would you test a login screen?

Which bugs are you proudest of finding in TEST (not in production)?

We see a lot of news about issues that make it into production.What about the ones we find BEFORE they wreak havoc in the wild? Which bugs are you proudest of finding during testing? Put another way, which bug is your favorite to tell others about finding?What kind of software? How did you find it? Scripted test? Exploratory? Why is the bug your favorite one to talk about?

QA Process

How we ensure that test cases returned by the chatgpt are accurate or not Test cases priority criteria must be on some grounds QA Team Focus is on efficiency currently No 1 criteria: How our QA process must be designed as catch all process.. output drive process Human dependency is at an extreme level still in our process. E.g how chatgpt returns correct solutions or all test cases. Create an ideal state of QA process. Current vs New User requirements document must be followed by test cases. 90% QA must be done at developer level Rameel must be part of every automation process QA Team must be doing edge cases, stress testing and cover the rest of the 10% process. UI/UX is ignored in this process The post launch plan is not up to the mark. We are working reactionary instead of taking pre reaction measures We need to step back to our dev process. Because the dev pro

Quick question

I have a quick question and I'm curious to see how people respond. Ever since this video, more and more projects require accessibility testing. I'm curious—what tools or procedures do you use for that?I have a few on my list, and each day I come across more and more—like this one, for example. But I’d prefer to hear opinions or get a few ideas directly from people. Google or Perplexity are full of articles that just copy each other, and tools that are either super expensive or just weird.Thanks!

QA always gets the blame--why?

Ever been in a meeting where a bug was found, and all eyes turned to QA?Imagine a new feature goes live, but a critical bug slips through. Customers start complaining, and suddenly, QA is under fire. But when the team looks deeper, they realize the issue came from unclear requirements and a last-minute code change.QA isn’t the last line of defense—we’re part of the whole development process. If a bug makes it to production, it’s not just a QA failure; it’s a team failure. Instead of pointing fingers, let’s ask: How can we improve collaboration to catch issues early?Have you been in this situation?
