This makes want to become a tester. It scratches my evil itch just the way I like it.

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 43 points 2 months ago (1 children)

there's three qualifications to being a testor:

Finding stupid ways to break shit, Being able to accurately explain how you broke shit, and being likeable enough that breaking their shit doesn't make the devs angry.

Being able to accurately explain how you broke shit

This is the most important part. Or look at systems like SpiffingBrit and Josh (Let's Game it Out) look at games

Josh does mostly stress testing though

That too, but also lots of glitching through walls and, most importantly, "doing everything as wrong as possible"
