Well, here it is! Here's my @getpostman talk at #postcon2019. I talk about: - My testing background. - My "relationship/history" with Postman and the community. - How I'm using Postman at @gear4music @g4mtech

So…I went to see @thedarkness perform at the @MandSBankArena tonight and the fire/smoke alarm went off after the first song. We all had to evacuate the venue after the first song 😂 Check out the smoke above the lights 😬 I’m curious how this was tested at the venue 🤔🤔

That said, I am calling everyone out for a challenge! You give me a web component of any framework that you think is impossible to test or get a 100% test coverage for and I will proof you otherwise 🧐 if I loose I will donate $100 to a charity of your choice! Game on! 🤝
All component testing examples I see out there are overly simplistic and stop where user interaction is required 🙈 makes me really thing if folks test their components thoroughly! I am very excited how @webdriverio will be able to change that! 🚀

APIs are a key component of how data is collected & shared. And to make sure your APIs are working as they should, you need to test them. In this beginner's guide, @larymak1 explains why it's important to test APIs & shares some best practices & tips. https://t.co/iyncKv6ZvT

In this digital age, APIs have become the cornerstone of how data is shared and processed. But many users are often unaware of the fact that they are putting their trust in an API and not a person....

You know why us Senior+ engineers have good hygiene around structuring and naming conventions? It’s because we’ve been bitten by our mistakes enough times to have respect for what we can do wrong when we’re careless.

One of the most critical decisions for your career is who you pick as a life partner. Partnering well is an accelerant.

Had a great day at my first @testing_atelier event in Leeds :) I really enjoyed the talk by @ObjectiveTester as well as picking his brain on the role of a Test Architect. And I FINALLY got to meet the infamous @Beth_AskHer after several online interactions 🙂 #TestAtelier

We’re creating a space with one of the leaders and #Selenium core contributors @titusfortner to talk about Page Objects. What are they? What makes a good one? Do we always need them? What are alternative approaches? Live Q&A #programming #testing

Don't burn yourself out trying to change the culture of an organization where you are not in a position of power.

@shs96c I don't think it's helpful. A lot bundle under E2E there. Security? Performance? Accessibility? Also the distinction between manual and automated needs to die. It's very damaging. Time spent thinking about risks, designing tests ideas, executing them. Vs building tooling

@4EVER1CONIC A difficult to implement oracle, or assertions that are flaky, is usually a sign that your test is too big, or its on the wrong layer. I didn't do the best job is this talk, but I talk about oracle's here https://t.co/SXU8I8MzcJ
