I have general questions about Testing.
1. Do testers test in debug mode to test for the games? If not, then do testers have to test the overall game quality in just one sitting?
2. If a certain bug is hard to trigger, should testers be skilled enough to trigger said hard bugs?
3. Is there a difference between Quality Assurance and testing or are they both the same thing?
4. I heard of tales that testers are generally treated badly. Is this true or false interms of working conditions? Is it also true that testers are paid poorly?
5. Besides testing for the overall quality of the game and reporting them via use of verbal/social communication skills, what else are testers suppose to do?
6. Are programmers in general very dependent on game testers for their work in programming the overall game?
