As promised, I've published the #sketchnotes I made at #AgileTD on Mastodon: mastodon.social/@lisihocke/1... Credit and thanks go to the following speakers: Vincent Wijnen, Paul Holland, Portia Tung, Laveena Ramchandani, Rahul Verma, @emilybache.com, Sander van Beek, ...

When I started my current job I had a chat with @heatherreiduff.bsky.social, she told me to ask my manager: what does success look like in this role? It's a question that stuck with me and has been useful in multiple contexts. Happy to see it on Heather's and @lenapejgan.bsky.social's slides today.

Learning about transitioning from a tester in a leadership role to being a manager from @heatherreiduff.bsky.social and @lenapejgan.bsky.social at #AgileTD. Heather's thinking about moving to management, Lena moved from tester to manager already.

@theywrestletest.bsky.social at #agiletd talking about who we are, about what motivates us as a person and as a tester. All the questions we could have #testing

I finally have a gold record AND got to wear a pretty dress that I would never have dared wearing just a few years back. @agiletdzone.bsky.social - thank you for being a safe space for living your full crazy self.

On my way to #AgileTD today, the pilot made an announcement while on the ground "We've run into some technical difficulties, we're going to try turning the plane off and back on again" #BugMagnet 😂

Thank you so much to everyone who joined us at #PeersCon24 yesterday! This event was an absolute delight from start to finish. Thanks to all speakers, VolunPeers, sponsors and the community....our Testing Peers

Loving this talk from @sannetized.bsky.social! Reward collaboration and cooperation on your teams instead of individual excellence. #PeersCon24

Kicking off strong with Claire Reckless asking us if we've ever felt that we didn't belong in a role, had nobody to go to for support or share our success. #PeersCon24

Really looking forward to the free online Software Teaming Conference 2024, learning together with amazing folks - and giving my latest workshop "Capture the Flag Together: Security for Everyone"! 🤩 See you there? agilenewengland.org/software-tea... #softwareTeaming #ensemble #security

The journey to #PeersCon24 has begun! See you all soon 😀

Mark your calendars folks 🗓️: Feb 29 at 3:00 PM we'll run the first @agiletdzone.bsky.social webinar of the year! Bart Knaack & Micha Kutz will talk about CI/CD, common myths & misconceptions. Bring your questions❓and join the session. Details follow soon! #AgileTesting #CI/CD

Picard management tip: Don't assume anything is possible or impossible until you've asked the people who will be doing the work.

Hi all, does anyone know of any European accessibility events/conferences that are worth attending for a newbie to the topic? Many thanks!

Appreciating my Secret Santa this year ❤️ Some fun facts in this game to keep me entertained in hospital 😁

#AgileTD was once again a blast. As usual, I've published the #sketchnotes I took during the conference on Mastodon: mastodon.social/@lisihocke/1...

"AI can help us break anchor bias, but can also enforce it" @racheljoi.bsky.social @lisacrispin.bsky.social #agileTD

Ooooh @alexschl.bsky.social & @mllesophiepofie.bsky.social are channeling my inner duck suspects at #AgileTD

Pro tip "Ask your manager if they are open to receiving feedback today" from @alexschl.bsky.social at #AgileTD. Managers get a lot of criticism every single day & sometimes your feedback might be better another time.

"Sometimes the walls in our lives are the stepping stones to where we need to be" #AgileTD

"The art of maximizing the amount of work not done - is essential" It's a fine art to balance getting the smallest solution out the door. Another talk at #AgileTD I can absolutely relate to 😁 With @alexschl.bsky.social and her colleague Tim.

"Ship it, not s#%t it" @alexschl.bsky.social at #AgileTD

"Code that isn't written doesn't have bugs in it" @alexschl.bsky.social dropping the truths at #AgileTD

I think we would work well together! Don't be afraid to experiment and fail. Make the piece of work small and learn from it! #AgileTD

We've swung open the doors to the 15th anniversary of #AgileTD! Welcome to three days packed with learning, social events, a multicultural and international crowd, and fantastic sponsors swag. #AgileTD #softwaretesting

"We meet, we learn, we laugh, we cry. That's Agile Testing Days!" @josediaz.bsky.social at #AgileTD Couldn't agree more

You are following @agiletdzone.bsky.social and maybe me for many years. You wished always to be part of the incredible conference. It is the time for you, your team and friends to be part of it! The Virtual Pass is there for you! www.agiletestingdays.com

What Tobias said! I too hope to be busy on the socials 😁 #AgileTD

My #AgileTD costume is almost complete 🔥

My #AgileTD costume is nearly finished 👀

Still not sure you want to spend money and time on a full-day tutorial with @developer-sam.bsky.social and me at @agiletdzone.bsky.social Agile Testing Days this November? Let me convince you. youtu.be/Ox5NnEZloCU Thank you @witchofthetest.bsky.social for the excellent acting!

Taking a minute to appreciate the warmth and length of the @agiletdzone.bsky.social t-shirts 🥰 This tall tester loves them!

Regarding the discussion on "should people post 'you are safe with me' share pics" I found this great contribution on Mastodon. As opposed to the other pictures this is a message that I feel comfortable sharing. (Shared with permission and without credit as requested)

So many people at #TestBash asked me: How do I learn coding? And everytime I recommended @developer-sam.bsky.social's talk on "Code Reading for Testers", so I thought I'd share the it here, so more people can benefit from it! www.youtube.com/watch?v=lYi4...

"The very community you are afraid to present to is the community who is there to support you" Don't be afraid to get up on the stage is one of the 99-second talk messages at #TestBash

Piggybacking @alexschnapper.bsky.social's excellent list of Software Testers on BlueSky, I've created a feed which lets you view all the listed users' posts. The idea is to preview and go follow those you're interested in! The feed is here: bsky.app/profile/did:... If you like this, please share!

Getting my #TestBash workshop kicked off with an ice breaker

Calling all looking for #TestBash @ministryoftesting.com content for the next few days. You can add this feed to your BlueSky: Tags Of MoT (last few days only) bsky.app/profile/did:...

Wouldn't be a trip to #TestBash without a few delays 😅 New ETA to Liverpool airport 1pm 🙈

On our latest episode of Adobo and Avocados, we spoke with @mllesophiepofie.bsky.social about imposter syndrome. Check out the episode below: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOHj...
