Test engineer specialising in performance engineering and continuous integration as well as introducing and improving functional and performance testing throughout the software development lifecycle.
I am passionate about making high-quality products that not only work but are accessible and meet customers' expectations. If it doesn't do what the customer wants, then it's not high quality.
Richard Strang has 25 years of software quality assurance experience. He considers himself a professional tester. Starting in the test automation tools space immediately after university graduation, he has worked with a broad array of organizations as a tester, QA Manager, QA Architect, QA Process Specialist, & QA Guild Leader. Richard's goal is to learn something new every day, and the best way to reinforce that learning is to teach it to someone else. So you will often find him talking and listening about testing topics with anyone who will engage. Richard has been CSTE certified since 2011.
A passionate context driven tester with over seven years of experience in testing a wide range of software products in the private and public sectors, a student of Rapid Software Testing and an advocate for testing effectively and ethically.
I like to refer to myself as a chaos magnet, because if software is going to go wrong, it will go wrong for me. I stumble over edge cases without trying, accidentally summons demonic entities, and am a shameless geek girl of the science fiction and fantasy variety, with a strange sense of humor.
Testing for more than 15 years has done nothing to make my sense of humor any less strange.
I have a twitter account which I mostly ignore, and a Facebook account which I also ignore. If there's anyone who is worse than me at social media, I haven't met them. The same applies to my very intermittently updated blog (which I've been meaning to get back to for... more than 3 years now)
I'm a tech geek, casual gamer, and sci-fi enjoyer. I love talking about software testing and being part of the testing community.
