Today we VIRTUALLY did a mini integration testing with 2 IT scripts. 8 people involved. 3 at work but social distancing from each other in their own cubicles and 5 at home. Coordinated the step by step scripts, captured testing screenshots, collected and documented issues...
Finished testing in 4 hours w breaks, social chats, and business chats, debriefed in 30 mins.... ALL INFO captured in real time by Microsoft Teams w embedded ONENOTE (screenshots and issue log) and EXCEL (test scripts).
This is exciting for me. If you have worked in “IT” you have to appreciate that we have been doing integration testing in one room full of computers, full of bodies, and generate a gazillion paper screenshots in BINDERS per script.
Got your kids at home for a few weeks due to the #CoronavirusPandemic ? Well, as a #homeschooling mom, I would love to offer a few tips that have helped me over the years.
(1) You don’t have to stand over your child and teach them 8 hours a day. An average school day is mostly filled with getting kids to and from classes, lunch, taking attendance, and other administrative things. Kids are not getting 8 hours of solid instruction and learning.
(2) We as adults, in the corporate 9-to-5 sector, don’t do too well with 8 to 9 hours of solid work and just a one hour break. Don’t feel compelled to structure your kids days like that either for the next few weeks.
