Started as a junior tester, helping on a project that was already on the market, but which was looking to develop further. I learned about iOS memory testing, apps walk-troughs, issue reporting, and retesting, testing based on a certain checklist and intuitive testing. Worked with the entire range of iOS devices available at the time. I then moved team and started doing surveillance for the apps that were already released and contained in-app purchase stores. This meant round the clock monitoring of a number of apps (4-10 - depending on team capacity), raising alerts and bugs whenever necessary and coordinate with the teams in China and France for rapid responses and fixes.Towards the end of my employment in Gameloft, I started supervising, handling and coaching a team of 4 other junior testers, providing training, simulations and other tools necessary for them to perform and integrate as soon as possible.
