Second and last part of the long-read on software testing or the lack thereof in bitcoin. (best to let it read by an A.I voice, it's mad to be read out loud).
This is writing nr. 11 ( of 12 ) from the food-fof-thought series, a deliberate critical look at some thing in bitcoin (jobs, books, conferences, testing...)
Is there a guide for a beginner to work on this?

Started reading expecting a lack of unit/functional/fuzz testing. Could do with specifying user/UX testing.
Agree this needs to be taken more seriously. We should be ready before a new wave of users come. I'm sure devs seeing how users experience their software would blow their minds and change their priorities.
Have a similar impression of Zeus from a few years back. Expected it to be the bee's knees from having heard about it on podcasts, and it was cool for being made by one guy, but the error handling was raw. Probably has improved in recent years.
There's somewhat of a bitcoin design community to help out with this, but maybe something more is needed to augment them in order to be effective.

It took you 8 years to "re-discover" bitcoin... No wonder you will not understand Zeus. Bitcoin is not something that you test it a bit and leave it for years... you test, use, improve every fucking day.
