Scott Hackeson

Test Architect & Principal Engineer

Started my IT journey working in a call centre supporting the HMRC with technical issues and then moved into Software Testing with an IT consultancy and haven't looked back since. I have spent most of my career working for IT consultancies which has allowed me to have a wide knowledge of all aspects of Software Delivery and allowed me to specialise my skills in Test Architecture. I have a wide range of skills from writing Test Frameworks in C#, Java, JavaScript/TypeScript and Python, to also building out Platform type things in Azure and AWS. My current role is identifying the best way clients can implement robust testing in their entire route to live including all aspects of testing including Functional and Non-Functional (Accessibility/Compatibility/Performance/Security and others).

🎂 MoTaBirthday | April 9, 2024

Scott Hackeson is yet to expand their MoTaverse profile.

Here are a few ways you can help them get started:

Tag them in a Moment. Think of a Moment as a blog post. Mention in one of yours so they see they're already part of the conversation.
Invite them to an Event. There are plenty of online and in-person events to choose from. A shared event is an easy way to connect.
Credit them in The Observatory. Share a link they pointed you to, or one they'd value. A small nod goes a long way.
Suggest they comment on a Session, Moment or Insight. Commenting is a good way to find your voice. Give them a reason to jump in.
Point them to the Glossary. Suggest a term they could add, or their take on one. Everyone has an interpretation worth sharing.
Bring them into a Chapter. These are topic and location-based spaces for members to gather. Help them find their people.
