Elizabeth Zagroba is Quality Lead at Mendix in The Netherlands. She sets out to prove that when “it should just work” it actually does. She's the go-to person for thinking critically about what’s being built, creating a common understanding, and writing API tests and English effectively. Her goal is to build enough skills in individuals and teams to make herself redundant.
