A purple graphic features a large white quote in the centre that reads: "You've gotta be really realistic about what you can and can't change, otherwise you're going to end up in burnout mode." Below the quote, in smaller white text, is the attribution: "— Anne-Marie Charrett." In the bottom left corner, there's a cartoon illustration of a brain with large, square glasses and a slightly open mouth with small, sharp teeth. The top right corner has a white logo that appears to be "MøT." The background is a gradient of dark purple to lighter pinkish-purple, with faint white star-like shapes.

A starry TestBash Brighton 2025 beach scene features beach huts filled with familiar MoTaverse characters. There’s a bug in a top hat, one with angel wings, another wearing a cape, and one clinging joyfully to a hut roof. A duck in a space suit waddles in. The iconic MoT flag flies, while a seagull soars overhead with a pencil in its beak. In the centre, a tester gently rocks a pram containing a test bug. Postman’s sponsorship arrives with energy and collaboration, expanding the API testing frontier in the MoTaverse.

A meme showing an elephant balancing on a beach ball, labeled “Production bugs no automation ever caught,” with the ball labeled “Shiny dashboards showing 95% pass rate,” and ants under the ball labeled “Me, quietly exploring edge cases without AI hype.”

This meme captures the reality many testers face when flashy automation dashboards show near-perfect pass rates, but bugs still slip into production. Often, it’s the quiet power of exploratory testing, fueled by critical thinking and domain knowledge (not just AI), that uncovers the edge cases no one planned for.

A meme with three red buttons, one for SpaceDuck, one for Bug and one for SpaceSeagull and a sweating and stressed out man trying to make a choice of which one to choose.

The daily struggles of MoTaverse design and branding are real.
