"Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication." - Barış Sarıalioğlu

In this episode, I talk with Barış Sarıalioğlu about testing as art and science, through the lens of Leonardo da Vinci. We ask what a tester can learn from curiosity, observation, and experiments. Mona Lisa's smile shows how uncertainty beats 100 pages of metrics. We should aim for understanding, not bug counts. We talk about storytelling, simple reports that people can read, and mixing engineering with empathy. Testers work across disciplines, explore, and make sense of messy projects. Perfection is a trap. Good enough can be great. Balance logic and imagination, and you get impact that reaches beyond tools.

Highlights:
Curiosity, observation, and experiments make testers better.
Aim for product understanding, not bug counts.
Uncertainty can beat piles of metrics.
Use storytelling and simple reports people read.
Balance engineering with empathy and imagination.
