Caffeinated Quality Virtual RoundTable: Quality on Trial | LinkedIn
Depending on who you ask, testers are either an endangered species in a world of AI-driven pipelines and “everyone owns quality” mindsets—or they’re more vital than ever, championing the user’s voice across complex systems. According to the 2024–2025 World Quality Report (Capgemini & Sogeti), 82% of organizations still consider specialized testing indispensable, but many are shifting the job title or blending responsibilities across DevOps teams. So which side is right? Are testers quietly fading out, or evolving into the ultimate quality coaches, security advocates, and customer champions? Bring your experiences—whether you’ve navigated an identity crisis (“Am I still a tester?”), dabbled in new roles (quality engineer, automation coach), or seen first-hand how testers keep dev teams honest. Let’s discuss how the discipline is transforming, what skills are in demand, and why (or why not) a dedicated testing role still has a place at the table.
