About me

QA engineer, mostly automation. Working out of Mexico.

I've been doing QA since 2017. I'm not gonna lie, I love finding a way to break something, and then, build a better and brighter product with the team.

These days I've created TheTestNestMx. Most of what I take on is helping teams that have either no automation, or an existing test suite that's slow and unreliable. I help them get to a place where the tests are actually trusted.

I've worked on Windows desktop apps, web apps, mobile apps, and embedded smartwatches. Each one taught me something different. Embedded was the hardest. When the device is on someone's wrist, you can't just rerun a flaky test.

I follow the HIST manifesto (from QAMentor) when I work. The short version: automation handles the boring repetitive parts, but you still need a person to think about the parts that matter. I'm also ISTQB Foundation certified.
