Charlotte is a passionate automation engineer, focused on mobile automation. She is also an avid reader, certified chef, and Polynesian dancer! With over five years of software quality experience, she has developed her talents through insights provided to her in the industries she's worked, from health, banking, and now to Sports Media at Bleacher Report. She shares her love for software testing through mentorships and hopes to inspire others to think like a tester and question everything.
With around 8 years of QA experience, Charlene used to be obsessed with having the highest bug count in the company until she realized that quality and the product, should not be defined by the amount of bugs testers catch. Since then, she's been working to bridge the information gap in terms of quality by fostering a collaborative environment between testers and developers. She believes that testers are more than bug catchers and encourages her team to explore new technologies and solutions in automation and continuous integration.
