A typical day

Stand-up with the developers, then a build to test. You work through a test plan, try the things the plan forgot, and write up every failure with exact steps to reproduce it. An automation engineer spends the day writing and fixing test code instead, then reading overnight results. Before a release, everyone tests everything and days run long. Game testers may play the same level for a week looking for one crash.
