Hi, I'm Deborah Reid, I've been testing for about 12 years now. I am a Lead Test Engineer at Bloom and Wild group currently. Specialising in exploratory and risk based testing with a passion for accessibility. I've written a course for MoT on an Introduction to Accessibility Testing (my maiden name is Lee, so it might look like someone else wrote this course but I promise it was me!)
