My Experience

I was invited by the team during the mid-late development to conduct some QA testing for the game. I believe my work as a QA was greatly improved thanks to my experience with game design.

 

During tests, I'd be taking two approachs:

  •  Recording for new areas or smaller sections, and making notes while playing. This would so I could easily point out what time during the game session a bug was happening, and the dev could follow up on what lead to that happening.

  •  Screenshotting "simpler and static" bugs. When bugs popped up constantly, I'd normally just screenshot them to check with the team. If further analysis was required, a recording would be made.

I was able to beside identifying the bugs and problems, to also discuss with the devs what could be viable solutions to bypass some of them, which was greatly appreciated by the team.
