Sometimes I hear from developers: “I’m already automating tests, why should I have quality engineers in the team?”.

In fact, when you are doing it you are ensuring that your code is correct from logic point of view, not that is the correct code from the customer one.

This talk aims to clarify the misunderstood about QA role in development teams, demonstrating how QAs are required and why they should be part to achieve the goals for your product.

Although it is irrelevant the difference between testing and development in terms of responsibility, it not the same in terms of roles.
