The testers urge to press all the buttons, even the ones they shouldn't
17 Jul 2026
I'm the kind of tester who is curious about any and every button. What do they do,? What happens when I press it? What happens when I press all of them at the same time? Why is it here?
Sometimes creates weird situations where people are wondering why a certain thing is now appearing on their screen. OTher times it's usefull as I just discovered the feature we would need 5 minutes later.
And every once in a blue moon, you press a button and get a rubber ducky out of it 🤩
Did you see how many buttons there are on the MOT website? Have you pressed them all yet?

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.
