What's happening at The Testing Planet episode 6: The Apprentice  image

A curious tester seeks advice from a friend. Many community members realise they have more advice to share than they once believed. Origin stories reveal curious connections.

This sixth episode of The Testing Planet will focus on the next generation of testers, those who are new to testing and how those who have been around can help them. This episode is not just dedicated to those getting started but to everyone interested in collaboration and career goals.


We've split this episode into 3 parts, in a way to mimic the path of someone becoming a software tester:

  1. Learn about testing
  2. Interview
  3. Onboarding
