I am happy to announce that I have taken a job at Guidewire Software. Guidewire is a unique company that takes quality and testing very seriously and has been able to attract some of the best TDD practitioners in the Silicon Valley. I am looking forward to learning much from them.
In preparation for my role on the testing team, I have been re-reading Goiko's Bridging the Communications Gap book. I consider this a special book because in addition to the requisite coverage of the latest tools and techniques this book also vividly reminds and inspires us to never forget that clear and accurate communication is the bedrock of any quality initiative. His anecdotes from various fields of endeavour clearly illustrate the fact that accurate communication is a problem as old as our civilization and has to be dealt with appropriately before any team can succeed in its mission.
