00:00 - 00:03Dear CEO, we fired few people,
00:04 - 00:05the company is still in chaos,
00:05 - 00:07and rumors are already spreading like wildfire.
00:08 - 00:12We have to shift our quality to the left,
00:12 - 00:15so developers and AI will do QA's work.
00:17 - 00:19Wait, who exactly was fired?
00:19 - 00:21Wait, who exactly was fired?
00:24 - 00:26Dear CEO...
00:27 - 00:28We ....
00:31 - 00:33We laid off entire QA,
00:34 - 00:36they'll be replaced by AI.
00:52 - 00:58Everybody's out, except CTO, CFO, HR manager and Engineering manager.
01:13 - 01:15Firing entire QA?!
01:15 - 01:17How does firing whole QA improve quality?
01:18 - 01:23And your solution is “shift quality to the left".
01:25 - 01:28So let me understand this.
01:29 - 01:31Entire QA is gone?
01:31 - 01:34So now developers are QA engineers too?
01:34 - 01:37Developers already have huge backlog and
01:37 - 01:40and now have to catch their own bugs?!
01:40 - 01:42Sir… the CTO says this is standard in modern engineering.
01:42 - 01:46How will fewer people make us faster and better?!
01:46 - 01:48Sir… the CTO says AI can handle testing.
01:48 - 01:52Next week you'll tell me we replaced CRs with AI.
01:53 - 01:54Let me guess!
01:56 - 01:57CTO seen random LinkedIn post,
01:57 - 02:00some self-proclaimed engineering leader said QA is obsolete,
02:00 - 02:03and suddenly we reorganize the entire company.
02:04 - 02:08That guy probably has never shipped production software,
02:08 - 02:13Was it one of those posts with a rocket emoji?!
02:14 - 02:16Because some influencer posted a diagram.
02:17 - 02:21Did any of you actually ask the developers about this stupid idea?
02:27 - 02:29Why exactly do we hire developers then?
02:30 - 02:34To do two jobs for the price of one?
02:34 - 02:36This is panic disguised as management.
02:41 - 02:42Brilliant.
02:43 - 02:47Did any of you even consider the release process?!
02:48 - 02:53If QA was so highly praised and valuable yesterday...
02:54 - 02:56why were they suddenly disposable today?
02:56 - 02:59Why weren't they moved to other teams?
03:00 - 03:02Instead we just fired twenty people.
03:04 - 03:07Relax. They can’t fire all of us.
03:14 - 03:16And this magical 80% automation…
03:19 - 03:23And all those Slido questions pointing out our incompetence.
03:25 - 03:26No roadmap...
03:31 - 03:33Company is doomed...
03:40 - 03:46We fired QA, make developers do twice the work, and call it ‘innovation’…
03:46 - 03:49just to chase more money?
03:53 - 03:56Push for better.
