I spoke about Observability at #testbash yesterday. This is a thread of references from my presentation.

Observability is about being able to ask arbitrary questions about your environment without having to know ahead of time what you wanted to ask.

I'm not sure how long I have the patience to keep participating in the same conversations in the testing community. The more I connect beyond our discipline, the more I feel that we've been talking in isolation for over a decade and working ourselves into a corner. Testers talk about how to automate, how to refactor, exciting new tool X, automation strategy, how to work with developers, reporting to stakeholders, certification, communication, customer empathy, and how the testing role changes in agile/whatever.
