Tester Types - The e-book

Got a few spare minutes? Come and read how the original monster tester types came to be

By Rob Lambert and Rosie Sherry

A few words fromĀ Rob:

After many years working as a software tester, I have met some incredibly interesting people. Along the way, these people have in some way shaped the person that I am today, and for that, I am eternally grateful. What these people also did was give me the insight and personalities that make up the basis of the Tester Types. These peers, colleagues and managers have all given me the inspiration I needed to make the 19 Tester Types you see in this book.

The e-book is free to share and download.
