Not so silently judging your untested merge requests
20 Oct 2026
I went to a one-day conference last week (BrewtCon) and brought back a bunch of fun stickers.
All the extras were brought to the office for anyone who wanted them.
One of them read 'Silently judging you untested merge requests'.
The first dev who saw those stickers took that specific one and came to me: "Demi, you don't judge us silently at all"
They know me so well 😊

I've been in testing since 2023, since then I never stopped learning and taking every opportunity I've come across. From becoming test lead not long after I started, to being a community lead for testing and for AI in at the company I work at. Nowadays I'm learning the ropes of leading with quality as I have added the role of quality manager of my department to my growing list of titles.
