TestProject Blog

Between 2018 and 2020 I wrote a series of blog posts for TestProject. Sadly these appear to have been lost since TestProject was discontinued. These are the titles of the blogs that I wrote. I might see if I can find my notes for these and publish on my personal blog.

Material Talks – Malvern Panalytical Blog

While working for Malvern Panalytical, I helped promote the scientific instrument I was working on (Morphologi 4) by writing a series of blog posts on the theme of software testing, bugs and woman in tech. As they were promoting the instrument rather than creating serious discussion on software testing practices, I wasn’t able to be as critical or candid about software testing as I’d have liked to be. Despite having left Malvern Panalytical in 2019 I still have a software spot for this blog posts as they are what got me started with blogging.
