I always make going through our docs a part of new-hire onboarding. They learn the product, and you learn what in your docs is so confusing that a person who you hired for their supposed ability to help you MAKE your product, can't even figure out ABOUT your product.

But also, I did work on a project once where a test would scrape code snippets from documentation and make sure they still worked as expected. It's bad enough to break compatibility in your CLI, etc. but sometimes you need to do it. It's really bad when you have tutorials, recipes, etc. and they bit rot.
