So, after 4 attempts of convincing my boss I need a mobile pair(iPhone and Android) to test our company App(Mobile Banking App) I was refused because to ask for it I was required to show results. A little ambiguous because I guess I needed the tools in order to do the work and show the actual results. My disappointment is because other teams get this devices without hesitation, but my team is required to do a migration from IBM Broker Flow to Rest Quarkus Microservices for the back end services which this App uses. In order to test that I would have to wait for another team to include this in their backlog and prioritize it. Given their sponsor doen't care about this migration since is something of interest of IT VP and not Electronic Channels VP, it would take way longer to be included in a Sprint and thus, be integrated. The funny thing is my boss is demaning me to have this ready before August.
I purchased the mobiles by myself in order to do the Job and put that thing and others(so many) things I'm assigned to and will leave. The good is I can use those mobiles for testing my pet projects after I leave this hell.
