Even though I've been job searching for four months now, I am busier than I have ever been. You know what I mean. You've seen this blog! One week I am experimenting with AI, the next I am pairing Playwright with C# or Java, the next I am skimming docs about Contract Testing using Pact.
Each week I get more leads generated from my many LinkedIn posts. Each week is yet another rabbit to chase. Finally, this week, I get to refresh my Playwright + TypeScript skills.
LinkedIn Learning is offering me yet another free month, so this week I have been taking advantage of it by working on:
- Playwright courses: Master Test Automation with Playwright Certification: Consists of Butch Mayhew's Learning Playwright, and Playwright Essential Training, paired with Qambar Raza's Playwright Design Patterns and Advanced Playwright Techniques: Optimizing Speed, Stability, and Cloud Testing
- GitLab courses: Trying to refresh my GitLab knowledge with Josh Samuelson's Learning GitLab and CI / CD with GitLab. GitLab is if someone smooshed GitHub and Jenkins together. I also need to check out GitLab University.
By the way ...
... Are you in the Burlington, MA area on Wednesday, May 20th, 2026? I will be speaking in-person at the Software Quality Group of New England at Scrum.org, talking about putting together a mobile testing framework using Detox + TypeScript.
- People will start gathering from 6:00 pm to 6:30 pm. The talk will be from 6:30 pm to 7:30 pm.
- Don't forget to register at SQGNE,org so they know how much pizza to order.
- See the Slides! I just finished another draft of the slide deck.
I will see you there!
