If you think QAs are software developers, I’d like to know what you think QA stands for. Hint, it doesn’t stand for developer.
Inb4 “they develop tests”: so an event planner is also a developer then because they “develop a programme” and the words “develop” and “programme” are in the job description.
If you’re trying to hint that Quality Assurance doesn’t have “developer” in the title, therefore they aren’t part of development, I better tell all of the programmers, tech leads and game directors I know that they aren’t real developers either.
Bro, what? Being part of the development process doesn’t make you a developer. The hell? So you think somebody who has never even seen a line of code and manages a team of developers is a developer? You seriously want to tell me that the finance director of a construction company can call himself a builder because he manages the money needed to pay the builders? Jeff Bezos is a top paid developer at Amazon because he developed a strategy to R&D the fuck out everything and signed off on a product?
Also, I thought it was obvious that my sentence about a “programme developer” not being a software developer would make it pretty obvious, that the presence or lack of “developer” in the title isn’t the defining attribute of the job.

Where I worked QA did nothing else but programming. They were writing automated tests for anything we worked on.
There are devs who work in QA, automated tests absolutely need software developers.
So while not all QA are devs, but some QA absolutely are.
