Test automation Memes

Ah, the classic QA engineer joke that brutally exposes our industry's dirty little secret: we test for edge cases but somehow miss the obvious! The QA engineer methodically tests boundary conditions (0 beers), overflow values (9999999999), negative inputs (-1), and even injects random garbage strings ("ueicbksjdhd") and completely invalid inputs (a lizard?!)—covering every bizarre edge case imaginable. But then fails catastrophically on the most basic real-world scenario: someone asking where the bathroom is. It's painfully accurate because we've all built systems that handle the craziest edge cases while somehow missing the simplest use case that actually matters. The flaming disaster at the end is just *chef's kiss* - the perfect representation of that production outage caused by something so obvious nobody bothered to test it.
