Last week, a tester, Paul posted a message asking if they could change the configuration on one of the test environments. They were switching the locale from England to Scotland.
A tester, Becky then makes a fuss saying “We can’t change England to Scotland”.
Paul replies “Too late! I have now finished my testing, shall I change it back to England?”
Becky replies “No that’s fine…..I needed to understand what you were testing but if you’ve already done it then there’s nothing else to do.”
One week later:
Becky: “Is there a reason why the test environment is set to Scotland? This was previously set to England”.
Erm, yeah. You told them not to change it, but they already had. Then you told them not to change it back, so it’s still set to Scotland.
