Maybe I should repeat this every day: as testers, one of our most important jobs is to reveal problems that threaten the value of the product and the on-time, successful completion of the project (at every level of granularity). So whatever we're doing, does it help with that?

A Dev showed me this image today and said "We can unit test that the first line is red and the second line is blue but we can't write a unit test to tell us where purple starts or ends". I said "We face these kind of problems all the time in #testing. Colours are like quality."
