I would interpret a testing of 0 as willing to write the minimal number of tests needed to get their code working and 5 as willing to spend all their time developing the company wide testing framework and testing policy and making sure it's continually updated and being followed, as well as being the last person in the chain to sign off on the fact that any software leaving the shop as passed all the tests.

Basically being a 5 means you want to own that aspect, if necessary at the exclusion of everything else.

Your interpretation seems like a reasonable scale - however, it is a very vague definition of "0". I'm sure some people want a 0 to mean an actual 0, like a blind developer asked to do UI development.

Interfaces aren't only visual - blind users still have to interact with something.

Yeah, sounds like a joke. But I worked at a company where the tech writer was legally blind, the marketing guy was shy and the spokesperson (CEO) stuttered. Weird place.

OK, let's take 0 to mean does not write tests on principle and 1 to mean writes minimal tests grudgingly if required by policy.
