I ask, because some people like these things.
I came across this one today: http://geektester.blogspot.co.uk/2017/08/manifesto-for-quality-assurance-testing.html
There is also the one from Growing Agile - 
Any other ones out there worth sharing?

It’s interesting because we were talking about this at work last week. Mine, now I’ve thought about it is:
• Involvement as early as possible
• Challenge appropriately
• Describe behaviours with actionable insights (there’s not such thing as bugs!)
• Be multi disciplined when necessary, we are all members of a development team
• Use mnemonics and heuristics to help ensure you don’t miss things
• Don’t be afraid of trying thought techniques such as six thinking hats or personas be creative
• Be open to learning new techniques, tools and skills
A colleague mentioned their core testing values used to be “Collaboration, Knowledge and Rapid Feedback” when he was a tester.
I’ve not seen anything else described as a manifesto but I am working on my beliefs which could do a similar job.
What’s yours Rosie?

Love this! Thanks for sharing.
James Bach had a blog post on Tester Commitments that is similar: http://www.satisfice.com/blog/archives/652

Besides what’s already suggested –
- Context based thinking and experimentation over Best practices
- Generalists over specialists
- Growth-mindset over Fixed mindset
- Service-oriented team players over quality gate-keepers
- Information providers over defect loggers
