That is ALL true. Why are you in test without getting respect, fewer promotions, no visibility, not working on cool stuff, just cleaning up others messes..?

‘Cause I like ripping up bad software (and bad devs) more than I like coding. Being a dev just means crapping out the minimum kLOC to get the task accomplished before getting dumped onto the next task. At least I get to think about why the product sucks and about what to do to fix it, and have enough knowledge of the product and the technology to make the changes stick. PM starts projects, but test are the ones that finish it. Dev is merely the people who put the pieces together.
