I’m #buildinginpublic a REST #API #test tool in #Java that supports authentication and renders the response in a tree view and lets you assert on values, generating #tests in code. #buildinpublic objectivetester.github.io/je…

Cleaned up and pushed some uncommitted code on the test tools I wrote a few years back. I’m going to modify Wisard to generate #PageObjects, Jester needs a better UI and more #REST #API testing features. If you’re interested: objectivetester.github.io/wi… objectivetester.github.io/je…

I use #VSCode as my preferred editor, and customised the syntax highlighting - I've just published a Tertiary colour theme that's designed to be easy on the eye : marketplace.visualstudio.com…

#Productivity Tip : I organise tasks and projects in multiple email folders to make things easy to find, but files that aren't linked or attached to #email can get easily get lost - drag files into a folder in #outlook and manage emails and files all in one place

@ObjectiveTester just yet again demonstrated and reassured us that there's no such thing as "our system is too complex and too complicated for automation". There are ways to build your automation more effective and more efficient but you need to be smart about it. #SIGiST2023

Long lived source branches that go stale are a big problem in software #development, updating the branch with changes made upstream can be difficult - I just managed to #git #rebase a branch without blowing anything up or using --force so now it's ready to be reviewed as a PR 😅
'Dear Evil Tester' by @eviltester dropped through my letterbox yesterday - It's not a typical book on #software #testing, but a very satirical and irreverent look at the field which will definately teach you a few things and put a smile on your face : eviltester.com/page/dearevil…
Had a great day at my first @testing_atelier event in Leeds :) I really enjoyed the talk by @ObjectiveTester as well as picking his brain on the role of a Test Architect. And I FINALLY got to meet the infamous @Beth_AskHer after several online interactions 🙂 #TestAtelier

If all you care about is Chromium-based browsers, I believe you're doing your users a disservice. Using a tool that uses an underlying proprietary protocol instead of a standardized one facilitates this. Plus, it's bad for the open web.

I love this pattern to write JSON Assertions, so I decided to finally write about it, as I haven't seen it documented or used anywhere yet. Disclaimer: This is some intense technical stuff. I hope you find it as useful as I do on a daily basis. testpappy.wordpress.com/2022…
