Blog launch: Weave - Threads of Software Quality

Today I’m launching something I’ve been thinking about for a long time. A new personal blog about testing, quality, and finding better ways of working.
The first post starts with a line from Winnie-the-Pooh that has always stuck with me.

Here is Edward Bear, coming downstairs now, bump, bump, bump, on the back of his head, behind Christopher Robin. It is, as far as he knows, the only way of coming downstairs, but sometimes he feels that there really is another way, if only he could stop bumping for a moment and think of it. And then he feels that perhaps there isn’t.”
— A. A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh (1926)
Testing can often feel like this. Trapped in a never-ending cycle — running faster and faster, yet never seeming to actually get anywhere.
This blog is my space to pause for a moment and think. To explore testing, quality, and better ways of working. If you're curious, please take a look. I'd love to hear what resonates with you.
