A comparison table titled "MoT Professional Membership vs LinkedIn Learning and Pluralsight." It contrasts key aspects of the two offerings across categories like focus, content quality, relevance, community, format, instructors, trends, learning style, and professional development. The MoT column highlights strengths such as deep focus on software testing, practitioner-led content, active community, modern relevance, flexible learning formats, real-time insights, and respected career development. In contrast, the LinkedIn Learning and Pluralsight column describes a more generic, outdated, passive, and isolated learning experience with no community involvement.

RCRCRC heuristic by Karen N. Johnson helps identify areas that need testing when software changes:

Recent - What testing around new areas of code should I think about?

Core - What essential functions or features must continue to work?

Risky - What features or areas of code are inherently more risky?

Configuration Sensitive - What code is dependent on environment settings?

Repaired - What code has changed to address defects and potentially created issues?

Chronic - What code typically breaks features that need to be tested?

Free, Pro, or Thinking Models: Testers LLM Trends - 2025

Not every large language model (LLM) is built the same, and not every tester needs the same models.

Trend

Why do we assume complex problems have simple, universal solutions?

Sure — sometimes simple is enough. But when we’re dealing with a variety of challenges across different teams, projects, and contexts, it’s unrealistic to expect one magic fix.

I saw a post recently claiming that the key to solving Quality Engineering issues is to “start testing earlier.” The idea is sound — shift left is a solid practice.

But is it always the most important thing?
Not necessarily.

In some teams, the bigger issue is communication between product, development, and QA. Testing earlier won’t help much if the handoffs are broken. Wouldn’t it make more sense to start by aligning on how the teams actually work together?

In others, the problem is prioritization — bugs that were known before release get rediscovered by users, creating unnecessary fire drills. The issue isn’t when they test, it’s how they handle what they already know.

And some teams are simply releasing too fast, cutting corners on quality and spending more time cleaning up avoidable messes. Testing early won’t help if there’s no time or process to act on the results.

Bottom line: shift left is great, but it’s not a universal cure.

Start by identifying your team’s biggest pain point. Solve that. Then move on to the next.

We all want silver bullets, but complex systems rarely work that way. Not everything is a nail — and a good toolbox needs more than just hammers.

Look at yourself… Taking your vitamins is healthy.
But don’t expect them to fix everything if you’re still sitting all day testing code without getting up to move once in a while.

Better quality products is fixing one pain point at a time
