Me: There's a CAPTCHA on Sign Up form & we have to automate 1000 account creation from Sign Up form.

Automator: No problem, I've already automated the CAPTCHA too.

Me: What? That's a critical bug.

Automator: Oops! I did not know that.

Lesson: Learn #Testing to discover risks.

@jrosaproenca This is awesome! Takes a while to get used to and we don't always get it right, but it is so worth it.

@richph1234 Like the 134: “How do you feel about bugs?”. Getting the kids into testing, even before they can read :D
