New things I'm learning and trying out

2018
  • Postman - developing a framework that allows orchestration of calls in any API endpoint collection to mimic a number of typical user sessions with Fiserv's mobile apps. Also designing it to be re-usable across many testing, certification, and production environments, and for any Financial Institution configured in those environments. Previous API automation suites were all close tied to a specific data configuration of a mocked environment, and could not be used in fully integrated environments.
2017
  • Primarily focusing on learning the product and testing domain as they apply to my new Test Engineering role at Fiserv
    • Extended internal SpecFlow (C#) suite of API automation checks for our interface with Card Services
    • Powershell scripts to help make manual deployments more efficient.
Dec 2016
Nov 2016
Oct 2016
  • bootcamp@elementalselenium.com
  • Selenium - setting it up on my mac with Maven. Exploring it with ole.saintkentigern.com.
  • Bootstrap - writing a static page showing 10 iFrames to show on a mobile - no joy so far
  • HTML - showing 10 iFrames side by side horizontally, one for each subject my son has at school.
Sep 2016
  • WikiMedia - using the wikipedia engine to set up this cvwiki and other wiki's
