TESTING IS NOT A 9 TO 5 JOB
In past Olympics, we watched as Michael Phelps do something that no other Olympian had ever managed to accomplish. He won more gold medals than any other single athlete ever before. We spent weeks watching as he won gold medals time after time.
It’s easy for someone to imagine that athletes such as Phelps, Simone Biles or Mark Spitz are born winners, that such greatness is in their DNA. What many fail to realize is that they prepared for these events for years, spending day after day practicing, refining techniques, modifying strategies, and improving results.
Being an expert tester is no different. While the art and craft of testing and being a thinking tester is something that is built within you, simply going to work every day and being a tester is not always enough. Each of us can become “gold medal testers” by practicing, studying, refining our skills, and building our craft.
In this webinar, we will evaluate extracurricular activities and practices that will enable you to grow from a good tester to a great tester.
