“for those that will be helping out with the Phase 2 testing, the suite is here…”
Becky
I think we have around 5 testers in the team, and only 1 tester responded to Becky. This testing seemed urgent and the fact that she said “for those that will be helping” – this made out it was the testers, plus some other non-testers as volunteers.
As a developer, you assume you aren’t needed – because you’re a developer. But if a tester says their testing is urgent and they need help, then they may request volunteers. It was the first I’d heard of this, and it seemed weird that only 2 people were actually testing.
I questioned the statement, and apparently Becky wanted testers AND developers to volunteer. Why didn’t she say something? She managed to make it sound like people had already been told if they were doing it.
She is so bad at communicating.
Maybe that’s why the Testers weren’t even testing it.
Becky is a Senior Tester and I remember our Team Lead saying he was going to give her more responsibility because she wanted to progress her career. Well, she can’t even manage to get Testers assigned to do some software testing, so what hope do we have?
