This was one of the main reasons I asked for the software_testing community to be created
I moved into test automation at work (Selenium and C#)
but I learned by 'drinking from a firehose', essentially I had to browse the existing codebase and ask questions in team chat or private messages to the other team members
I'm hoping this community can get more activity from long-time testers and provide some good resources for people who want to learn!
Yes, exactly, having people to expand horizons with, talk through things, exchange experiences and ideas with would be awsome.
I see that for testers it takes longer to form a community, but there is a huge potential. Do testers still feel like they don't belong?
How it went for you? Must have been really stressful.
I recently found https://testautomationu.applitools.com/, seems interesting.
yeah learning all about automation was a bit stressful because our company had re-organized teams so there was a lot of new people on new teams
but I'm lucky because now our company really wants to focus on quality, so test automation is a big part of it
I'll check out that link, its funny because my company is looking to purchase a license for an Applitools product. I've had a few meetings with people from that company already
Cool, let me know if those are good
