BTW Simon talks about this at 26:42 [video] if you want some additional context.

He does mention a form of manual testing: Facebook employees run beta versions of their apps on their own phones (36:03 [video]). I think Facebook's product is particularly well suited to this, and it doesn't apply to all software projects -- you obviously can't dogfood your banking backend or aircraft control system at home.
