What separates good projects from great ones? Proper testing.
Manage episode 482657481 series 2422944
In this episode of Discussing Stupid, Virgil and Cole are joined by a new guest—High Monkey’s Project Manager and QA specialist, Seth Moline. Together, they dig into the often-overlooked world of quality assurance (QA) and why it can make or break a digital project.
From accessibility issues to ripple effects caused by last-minute code changes, Seth walks us through what great QA really looks like—and why it’s not just a checklist you run through before launch. The team discusses how QA needs to be methodical, repeatable, and fully integrated into your build process—not an afterthought.
They also explore:
- Why QA isn’t just testing—it’s marketing
- How staging environments save you from public embarrassment
- The value of fresh eyes and non-developer perspectives
- Common QA mistakes and how to avoid them
- Why accessibility should never be separated from quality
Whether you’re a developer, content manager, strategist, or digital lead, this episode will change the way you think about testing and quality.
