🏆 AWARD ANNOUNCEMENT 🏆 We're thrilled to announce that our game-changing partnership with BT Group has won the award for "Most Innovative Project" from the 2024 Asia Pacific Software Testing Awards! Perforce Software's commitment to app quality and innovation is nicely summed up in the project below: "British Telecom’s SpamShield project, powered by AI/ML, instilled confidence in their text messaging platform. Despite global challenges posed by spammers, the team swiftly made decisions by leveraging teamwork and collaboration. The project adhered to Agile principles and achieved remarkable results: testing time reduced from months to minutes, costs slashed by 80%, and successful implementation of an efficient automation framework. What began with developing a unique solution evolved into an all-encompassing agile testing strategy that improved upon every single touchpoint within the development process. Customers now enjoy a safer experience thanks to this timely and effective initiative." See the full list of award winners here 👉 https://lnkd.in/enMHADAS

Like many professional testers I have a passion for making things better. I'm pretty sure this passion ties in many of us to why we love to mentor junior testers and make them, and therefore our profession, better. And yet it can be an uphill challenge to get some teams to being in juniors, after all they're 'inexperienced.' But there are many benefits to bringing juniors into your team, listen to this month's #PLATOPanelTalks.

For those who have traveled through Europe, it's evident that the roads there are often narrower than desired, even when there's ample space for wider ones. These narrower roads serve as built-in speed control mechanisms (i.e., quality control) because they make accelerating more challenging. Now, how can quality be built into software development? Ihor Kosheliev, our Director of QA Office, shared insights on this.

After months of hard work, dedication and sacrifice, the team has successfully migrated the first batch of clients into the new system. It wasn’t easy. This is especially so for a project which run on an Agile-based approach where teams of individuals work collectively like a well-oiled vehicle. Each and everyone has a role to play. Any lapses would inevitably affect the timeline and health of the entire delivery. Not to mention the odd or long hours the team is expected to put in How then to maintain a consistent momentum? For me, it is simple - I always tell myself and the team that the “work” will never be the priority. Don’t get me wrong. In a result/KPI environment, work is very important. Even more so for a project, where adhering to strict timeline is crucial. Nevertheless, everyone “work” for a reason - to support oneself, or their family or could be for something else entirely. Simply put, our “work” is a means to an end. Hence, I have always made a point to myself, everyone has (or most probably has) something they prioritize more than work. It could be family, friends, hobbies, pets etc. As such, I have always reminded the team to help each other and leave no one behind. We are like a football team. When one move out of position, another will drop back to cover. That is because none of us know when we will move “out of position” one day. If we cover for our teammate today, eventually they would also do so for us some other day. We spent a lot of time with our colleagues and teammates everyday. More often than not, we do not know what they might be going through outside of work. Long story short, I always try my best to not create unnecessary or extra stress for anyone at work. At the same time, incorporate a lot of fun into the work. As a team, we might not always be the fastest, but I’m quite sure we will go the furthest. Here’s one with the team after a successful late night migration!
