I test software and have strong but weakly held opinions about software testing.

Marvel Zombies S2 has a very good freeze frame of enterprise Python code.
My approach to software product delivery revolves around discovering the least amount of work we need to do to: 1. Validate & understand the problem. 2. Solve the problem. 3. Delight the customer. Often we have to iterate through step 1 many times before we get to step 2.

Even if proprietary software has a greater market share, OSS will always come out on top. You're going to have the rug pulled out from under you. Postman to limit collection runs to 250/month (including those run on your own infra) w/ professional license. community.postman.com/t/250-collecti…

I find it strange that many people extol the benefits of cucumber/gherkin in creating "human readable" specifications but, when asked, have never thought about using it collaboratively. And typically can't name any humans who ever actually read what they write. #softwaretesting
When people say "best practice," they have some assumed context in mind. Of course nothing is always best, everywhere, for everyone. To understand what they intend, you need to understand what context they're imagining and whose point of view in that context.
I haven't used the new IDE, but it didn't implement anything that changes my fundamental objections to *all* codeless automation tools. They aren't good enough to effectively maintain large test suites. Creation costs low, maintenance costs high. @mmerrell has evaluated recently
I’m once again grateful to @BJSSLtd for making people feel safe and valued during these confusing times. Very happy to be part of the (still growing) Bristol team! #bristol #softwaretesting
We're not in Kansas anymore: the yes/no/maybe dichotomy of testing in the machine learning pipeline. 😖#machinelearning #softwaretesting

Testing highlight of the week: debugging something that turned out to be looking for the strings "True" or "False" and not the boolean true or false. #softwaretesting
This morning I cracked an issue in 5 minutes. It took me an hour to not fix it yesterday evening, so I guess sometimes knowing when to quit is the best thing you can do... #softwaretesting
