Take responsibility.
Your job doesn’t stop at creation in the new work paradigm, where we rely on agreements, standards, and interfaces. Your job doesn’t stop till it’s tested.
You create, then you ensure that it meets the agreement, the standard, or the interface. In the software world, we can use all kinds of automation — AI and bots — to execute this testing. If we can define it, we can test it.
But it’s ultimately a human exercise — whether it’s software, accounting, lawn mowing, nursing, welding, personal training, or mayor-ing.
As the human, you must take the responsibility to ensure you’ve adequately tested your stuff.
