I have been considered a senior test authority within Kainos' 'Government Digital' business unit since its inception in December 2012. My main objective is to streamline our QA approach across all of our government projects and identify gaps regarding test coverage within specific projects.My main day-to-day activities include coaching development teams to think 'test' and have more of a testing mind-set. After all anyone can implement a test, but it is difficult to gain the experience to define what a good test should look like. I also concentrate on integrating non-functional tests with CI, examples include performance, security, accessibility and failover/resilience, as I have witnessed non-functional testing still being left until the end of an agile project life cycle.
Listed skills include Test Planning, Test Automation, Testing, Test Management, and 14 others.
