Testing Peers
Testing Peers is a growing community of ~60 peers in testing, software quality, agility, test leadership, engineering management, and broader software development. We’re united by a shared goal: to drive quality in everything we do within our workplaces and beyond. Through collaboration, accountability, and mutual support, we strive to elevate one another both professionally and personally.
The Testing Peers podcast is now expanding beyond its original four hosts, David Maynard, Chris Armstrong, Russell Craxford and Simon Prior, striving to represent the voices of a diverse and thriving community. Our inaugural in-person conference, PeersCon, launched in Nottingham in March 2024 and will return in March 2025, further solidifying Testing Peers as a not-for-profit, by testers, for testers initiative.

Red Flags
Welcome to another episode of the Testing Peers podcast.
This time, join David, Chris, Simon and guest-host, Steve Watson, as we talk about red flags.
Before diving into the main subject, the Peers discuss if they've ever been told that they're a lookalike for anyone famous.
Diving into the topic of red flags, the Peers cover all manner of red flags that they look for, have experienced and any advice that they might have for dealing with these things.
From culture, to processes, micromanagement, intimidation, interviews, lack of context and more.
What are the red flags for you for an employer, an interview process, tooling choices, or approaches to testing?
We hope you found the discussion useful and would love to hear your feedback.
