In this episode, I'm joined by Vitaly Sharovatov, Developer Advocate at Qase, to dive into one of the most overlooked yet impactful practices in software development: developers testing their own code
.
We explore how shifting testing left—having developers test while building—saves time, avoids costly context-switching, and prevents bugs or misunderstandings from slipping through to QA or production. Vitaly also shares insights on how to structure your test strategy, balance manual vs. automated testing, and how tools like Qase can help teams stay organized and efficient with Test Management Systems (TMS).
Whether you're building solo or as part of a larger team, this conversation offers practical advice for writing more reliable code before it becomes someone else’s problem.
