My next #TuesdayNightTesting live stream is going to be on Tuesday 1st August, 8pm BST (UTC+1), where I will be testing the website "JPetstore 6".
Join me as I look for bugs, and show how I would test a website.
See you then!

Sadly, automation too often becomes a goal rather than a tool to help meet a goal.

Since the iPhone 14 went on sale, the 911 dispatch center near Kings Island amusement park has received at least six phones calls saying:
“The owner of this iPhone was in a severe car crash...”
Except, the owner was just on a roller coaster.

When I was just starting out in tech, I was taking thoughts posted by "famous" people in tech at face value. It was much later that I gained the experience to know that they don't apply for my context and situation.
It's all contextual, and most those thoughts are just opinions.

I spent time over the last week or so building a custom LMS to host my video training courses. This allows my @Patreon supporters to login via the Patreon OAuth API and take the courses.

🎤 1. Having testing discussions before they write code and then them realising you saved them time as you prevented bugs
🙌 2. Give each other kudos in front of others eg. At stand-ups and retros

Do you debrief after your exploratory testing sessions? Sharing useful discoveries regularly could help your team build better products.
@CAkehurstRyan shares the power of the debrief 💪

🔥 My free 7-hour beginner JavaScript course is finally OUT!
It is IMHO the most interactive JS course ever recorded, with 140+ challenges.

"Give your testers freedom to investigate the product...
Testing can’t be limited to confirmation and demonstration that the product can do what the business hopes it can do."
I approve this message from @michaelbolton. ;-)

You're never going to know everything there is to know in tech.
Instead, aim for the confidence to know that you can figure it out.
