Another movie pitch:

Due to management decision, a code freeze has been mandated to the main branch. 50 feature branches have accumulated waiting to be merged.

Management has now finally approved to lift the code freeze - but only for 24 hours. Will the poor engineering team manage to merge all feature branches in time?

    Here's one for a TV show.

    In 2022, a crack quality assurance team was made redundant by a CTO for a botched product launch they didn't commit.

    These men promptly escaped from a maximally unstable job market to the LinkedIn underground.

    Today, still wanted by recruiters, they survive as soldiers of fortune.

    If you have a broken codebase, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the QA-team.

    Is there a robust test suite?

    Merge, test, merge, test, patch, merge, test
