Hi, I’m Lauren

Who am I - I’ve been a tester for the past 7 years in Surrey, starting as a manual tester then as an automation tester and now a QA/ Software Delivery Manager.

What I think I need help with
I’m fairly new to the management so I’m hoping I can learn from someone and bounce some ideas . I’m also introducing a new QMS for the company - which I’ve never done before, in addition to setting up QA for a company. In return, I specialise in continuous delivery strategies and automation so I can help with that.

Where I want to get to
I want to get to a stage where I’m confident in my management experience, defining new strategies and executing them. My aim is to create a QA department that encourages learning, innovation, helping and give back to the community in a fast past continuous testing scenario.

Hi Everyone,

Who I am:

I’ve been a QA tester for 10+ years, testing pretty much entirely manually through the UI, both native mobile apps and web sites/apps.

What I think I need help with:

Short-term - Despite being a very good communicator, I’m looking for new opportunities and finding interviewing very difficult, so that’s the most pressing issue - just interviewing confidently.

Mid-term - Getting up to speed on agile and automation. I’ve tinkered with automation using Java and Selenium, but it would be great to have a project to work on and be accountable for.

Where I want to go:

Short-term - Landing a new position with an opportunity to move into automation.

Mid-term - Developing a more technically versatile skill set.

Long-term - Moving toward a position as Product Owner.

@bodda could you be my mentor in kickstarting my career with zero knowledge in coding?

Hi there!

Who you are
I graduated in June 2018 from a field of study not related at all (law&business) and started in august as a QA manual tester, so 5-6 months of experience doing manual testing, reporting defects and some planning, all via HP ALM.

what you think you need help with
I want to improve, in a way that’s not the fastest but on a good pace and knowing that’s efficient and doesn’t waste time, because I want to invest my free time in this. That’s why I ask for guidance, a mentor who can help me set a path to learn, do and complete. Due to my ignorance here, I don’t wanna run around like a headless chicken trying to learn things that won’t be of use at all, etc. I want to learn and do it correctly.

where you want to get to
Tht’s something i’m not sure i’m aware of too ^^U. My old team leader (changed company in December) explained to me that there were functional profiles for people like me that didn’t have technical background, like test managers or functional analyst as a goal to achieve, starting as a manual tester. My new boss kind of said the same, but I think after reading and talking with fellow testers and him, that I want to get technical knowledge too (learn to program, automation, to be better in my job, understanding devs and be a better professional and skilled QA…),while going towards my goal and improving. Trying to have a “hybrid” profile is possible?

how to get in contact with you
You can quote me here, and I can give you my email, telegram, twitter, etc.
If someone is willing to help I’ll answer for sure and be thankful hahahha

Thanks!

Who I am: AJ a software tester based in London. I have just over 10 years software testing experience. I have believe it or not just started to learn very slowly automation.
What I think I need help with: midlife career crisis - I don’t know if I want to be a tester anymore

Where I would like to get to: I would like to gain an understanding of how other testers have handled making this decision
