Some of the things I did after being off for a few weeks
I wish people would share more of what they do day-to-day. Especially testers and quality engineers. Show the work you do. On the other hand, I do realize that that’s hard. You don’t want to share sensitive information. You want to respect the privacy of your team. And then there’s the whole practical side. How much of the context do you need to share to have an intelligible story?
Since my current project is open source and my team works in public, I have more options than most. So let’s see if this kind of post works out.
Last week was my first week back at work after a few weeks of vacation. So an important part of my week was catching up. Going through emails and chat messages. Talk with my fellow team members. Participate in the usual meetings. Some stuff that didn’t make it into this post. More importantly, there are three things I did, that give a good idea of what a significant part of my job looks like.
