Bruce is Undeveloped, but maybe development will help – learn with me!
So I'm a bit of a higgledy piggledy person in general, a messy storm of ideas. Don't get me wrong, I can be Rand Al Thor with his flame in the void, focussing on one task or feeling until it's done. But just like Rand Al Thor, I have a tendency to take on too… Continue reading Concentrate.
It's been a year since I started this site, so it's time for an update. This post is about finding my personal brand, and using it to inform changes I need to make.
Got a group together to do some exploratory testing around authentication in a web app.
So I've been doing a lot of exercises and reading around leadership - not to become a team lead or change roles or whatever, but because I want to be a good advisor, mentor and advocate for quality in my company. I started with The Leadership Journey by Jim Holmes, mainly because he offered TestBash-goers… Continue reading Building a team path for quality
They put me in charge of a team retro, the fools.

Part two of my adventures at TestBash Brighton!
The first of two parts about my experiences at TestBash Brighton last week.
This post is about how I implemented a simple Visual Regression Test on my test playground, which interacts with elements inside an iFrame. This is something that can be a challenge for testing, since many of the most popular tools for automated testing like Gemini and Cypress don't seem to support this. I'm adding to… Continue reading Writing VRTs that interact with elements inside an iFrame
I've been procrastinating on a blog post I would like to write about some VRTs I made using Puppeteer with Jest, as it ended up being a long hit-and-miss process and I'm not sure which parts I would like to write on. I might even make a few posts on the subject, but I do… Continue reading On making a new learning path
