What I am doing now
Quality team reorg
We have redefined our quality strategy and organized our quality team along the principles of Team Topologies. We moved away from being 'quality gates' within project teams to shifting-left and enabling project teams to take ownership of quality themselves. Our aim is to put 'quality at source' to practice in our software teams.
Java
Java is pervasive in the tools I use for testing. I am almost done with the book 'Head First Java', which has helped me understand foundational concepts in Java such as inheritance, polymorphism, generic data types, streams, functional interfaces etc. I am now looking forward to implement these exciting constructs and contribute to some open-source tools that we use (Karate, Wiremock).
Gitlab
At the workplace, we are thankfully moving our CI pipelines from Jenkins to Gitlab. It has been great fun to rebuild our test pipelines with Gitlab and learn how this CI system works.
Running
I finished the Berlin Marathon in September, with a timing of 3:50:24.
India trip
I will be in India from 14 November to 9 January. I am looking forward to finishing this Himalayan Trek.
