QABC #6: How to write a QA/Tester CV and Automation to the People!
Details
Welcome to QA /Testing!
This is going to be our first Webinar for QABC and we'll email out the Whereby link on the day. To help with this, could we please ask people not to use their cameras or mics during the presentations. This may cause the browser to slow down, low connection and cause mic feedback. There will be opportunities to ask questions later on after the presentations. Thanks :)
