A turtle on a beach unimpressed with being called slow. He is a turtle he is doing his best testing work, dipsh*t image
In this moment: Maaike Brinkhof
I can across Maaike Brinkhof's most recent blog post this morning and from the front cover picture I knew I was in for the read I needed. It is always comforting to come across someone articulating what you want to say but a million times better and with beautiful rage.
Thank you for your fury, you made my morning <3

I've been testing for over 10 years and API testing is my favourite.
I believe testers/quality people are the BEST humans and always bring hope to my half glass empty soul.
