@C0D4 the reason they said they didn't have time is the same reason we waste hours daily.
Trying to save a buck.
Because 4 grand in testing equipment is too much I only get the hardware we develop for after it's sold to be on a machine .... -
@Nightstrider 4K is too much?
How many of these machines to they push out on a monthly basis?
Someone obviously doesn't value a good product over a shit reputation when things are released into the wild broken. -
Like 2 to 4 depending on delays
The problem is that they don't see software as part of the machine
I'm the only actual developer hired by the company. My senior is too busy with trying to get a ticket system and proper source control and release tooling. While me and 2 contractors run from bugfix to bugfix while management thinks we can work 40 hours a week towards their innovation goals.
Any bark we give up is softened so much it isn't heard by the budget guys. -
@Nightstrider I think it's time to find something else.

@C0D4 We only have prod. 🙃

@jallman112 thank you

@Root I'm sure I can but why is it still so scary?

Two unit tests, no integration tests.
Today I found a critical bug to our software and wrote a fix and tested it locally.
Common sense would dictate that especially when it is critical you test said fix on a real release and not with a debugger attached and running onna different device altogether.
I was denied this request because the afflicted machines engineer would not be able to finish the machine before the factory acceptence test.
I stood there with glassed over eyes for a second and then to no avail tried to explain that without this fix he wouldnt even pass the internal acceptance test......
