There and Back Again: A Quality Assurance Tale

There once was a technologist who loved the world of quality assurance and using that lens to improve code and product quality. She enjoyed finding bugs before they reached production, automating testing processes, and creating meaningful test plans. But, like how all great adventures start—she needed to step outside her familiar world of QA and set off on a new journey of building software.

This was not just a career shift; it was a saga of growth, adaptability, and the quest for excellence. She brought an arsenal of unexpected skills from QA that helped aid in her quest to become an intentional and unique developer.

Yet, like Bilbo's return to the Shire, the journey comes full circle, back to the familiar grounds of Quality Assurance and test automation, now enriched with newfound skills and perspectives.

Learn what skills aided her on her journey and the souvenirs she brought back with her aside from the mithril, swords, and tales of camaraderie with her developer fellowship.
