Episode description

"Monitoring is for your known unknowns. Observability is for your unknown unknowns." But what does that really mean? And where does exploratory testing fit into all of this? ⚡


In this episode of QA Therapy, we sit down with Charity Majors, co-founder and CTO of Honeycomb, to dive into the evolving role of testing, monitoring, and observability in modern software development.


💡 What you’ll learn:

✅ Why monitoring helps catch the known unknowns—things you expect might break.

✅ How observability uncovers the unknown unknowns—the surprises you never saw coming.

✅ Where exploratory testing fits in today’s fast-moving development cycles.

✅ How QA, DevOps, and Engineering are merging into a continuous process of learning and adaptation.


It’s not just about bugs, crashes, or outages—it’s about understanding what you’re unleashing into the world. 🚀 This episode will challenge how you think about quality, reliability, and testing.
