The QA I've done was on single player but it was mainly about finding bugs and making sure game mechanics and menus worked. Not sure to what extent they had people actually testing the group content beyond mechanics.

You also get players who enjoy bug hunting or call any strange interaction a glitch.
Eg in pokemon gen 1 there are a few bugs, but you can do most play throughs without them really being a big issue, but you get players who do ditto vs ditto matches claiming the match is a glitch (the only move ditto can do is transform, which copies the opponent’s moves and gives 5 charges to each move, so ditto vs ditto they end up just keep copying and recopying transform off each other, never running out of charges. Imo that isn’t a glitch, that is working as intended).
So yeah, players will seek out glitches and will classify things in game very openly as glitches to ‘prove a point’ about how ‘glitchy’ a game is.
