Yodle are looking for a tester
This came out of the blue, and I don’t know much about them, but someone from Yodle.com asked me if I would spread the word about their open tester position (New York-based). On paper, it looks pretty interesting, and my readership is mostly US-based, so hopefully this might help someone out: http://www.yodle.com/yodle-careers/jobs/new-york/qa-engineer/
Test Strategy Mnemonics
Based on some current work, I’m going to need to extend my test strategy mnemonic to include ‘Accountabilities’. That gives me a ton of options, such as ‘Gated Script Rats’, ‘Script a test drag’, ‘Attracts Red Pigs’ or ‘Egad! Script tarts’.
I’ll update once I’ve decided, but feel free to offer your favourites from the Anagram server, here and here.
Free testing book
Via Ben Kelly, Rikard Edgren’s brief but dense ‘Little Black Book On Test Design‘ is worth a read.
It’s cheap both in dollars (free) and time (less than 15 minutes if you’re quick).
