I embarked on my test automation journey in 2005; as of 2024, it has been nearly two decades. I don’t mean to boast, but I’ve accomplished quite a bit in the realm of end-to-end test automation:
- Authored 12 books on E2E Test Automation and Continuous Testing
- Invited to speak at international software testing conferences, including the premier StarWest.
- Implemented successful E2E test automation (web, API, desktop) in a number of software projects. Rescued some too.
- TestWise IDE I created received acknowledgements worldwide.
- My BuildWise CT Server won the 2018 Ruby International Award in Japan.
- I developed (and have been maintaining) several highly acclaimed apps in my spare time, thanks to my E2E Test Automation and Continuous Testing process.
- Regarded as one of the world’s top bloggers on software testing.
