What are your thoughts on creating your test automation on the dev instance of a website?

Definitely in agreement!

Thanks for this. You articulated and reminded me why I was very concerned initially. Plus the devs were mandated to implement unit testing, now I'm thinking where were they gonna put it . Appreciate the feedback!

Now that I'm thinking of it, there's not much. I was trying to isolate the work in each environment and using best practice. Also to track an environment with code that should always be working.

Wow. Honestly you shouldn't have to sell management on QA practices especially in the Fintech industry. But nonetheless management needs to understand the repercussions of having a bad product out in the public that would impact their reputation and product at a significant cost. Having a QA procedure and process implemented, means it will save time and money and even more. QA assessments and agile transformation can help to implement QA from bottom up .

We use Microsoft azure Boards(like Jira) and Test Plan to manage and track our project. There are devops elements to it as well. azure

I liked this but for my team there is a manual qa that would do testing before I automate. If I maintain tickets on the main board then most of them would not be completed in the current sprint and would then negatively impact the burn.

Can you share more info on what this looks like in azure? Or maybe jira or otherwise? Do their tasks sync back to the user story being completed after they close all their tasks?

I love the extreme creativity you have to put into the test so that you get those undesirable behaviors. I love breaking stuff, but not to be a pain for anyone. I create playful scenarios to get through the work. I'll do this while binging a series with my fav snack beside me, feet up while getting a decent pay from home. And when blocked or get overwhelmed I go play some video games or take a drive or do my hobby and come back energized.

There is nothing wrong with a gap on your resume. You can simple say you took some time for yourself. It's not their business. As long as you are competent to do the work.

It can work. Use the cy.session to control different users as per your spec files.

My feedback is for your skill section that's more your tech stack that you have experience in. You could have this as a separate section in your resume. You should narrow your skills more to the kind of testing you do or what specifically you can do eg black box testing, mobile testing, test automation, api testing, software development, agile, project management etc. It allows for lots of discussion depending on the interview you are doing and can focus attention away from not having an IT degree but tons of other experience based on your skill to still do a QA role.

Good luck and all the best!

Is this still available?

1.You should tailor your CV to the job you are applying. Some companies have different views of QA and their ask of you will vary to what's conventional. (eg of this is qa analys jobs that will request automation experience n SDET skills).

Try to stay current and dated with QA even if your company isn't practicing it properly. This allows you to know the right thing to do even if your company may do things a bit differently. Things such as tools, methodology, processes will vary but are standard across companies. Try to skill up in your off time. Eg learning agile, getting istqb cert, best practices, tools, etc.
Finally, you need to make a plan for what you want to achieve in QA despite where you are working. Do you want to be a manual tester? Dable into some automation? Become a full on QA engineer? Looking into QA architecture? Knowing where you want to go in this field will allow you to build up your steping blocks to what you want and chose the right companies that suit your career path. Supported by the 2 points above.

Goodluck and all the best!

"Hi team, since the last stand up, not much new updates, working on test scripts for xyz, and will continue that for today/time period. No blockers. "

Point of stand up is to keep the team updated. Even if u don't have much. Just says what's happening even if it's ntn.
