My name is Tamara. I am 42 years old and live with my partner and our two children in Bitburg, Germany. In my spare time I am passionate about baking, cooking, biking and sewing. I also spend a lot of time with music and play various instruments in a wind band..

After 25 years of monotonous work as an office manager, I was looking for a challenge.

Through my partner, who is also a tester, I also got “test addicted”.

At a conference in summer 2022, I got a first glance of the testing community. There I met my current boss and I'm happy to have taken the step into testing as a career changer.

Currently, I'm exploring the fascinating world of test automation and accessibility as a junior test consultant. My days are now filled with the challenges of learning Python/Java and other test automation and accessibility topics. Beyond my professional pursuits, my leisure time is dedicated to expanding my knowledge and skills in testing through reading and continuous learning.

“Lær at leve med leverpostej – En fortælling om magt, stress og leverpostej”

Camilla Ellyton

QA Lead

Mjølner Informatics

Bio

Jeg har arbejdet med kvalitetssikring siden 2007, og selvom jeg har prøvet på at snige mig ud af rollen op til flere gange, ender jeg altid tilbage i QA-rollen. Mit hjerte banker for god kvalitet i den bredeste forstand. Fra vugge til grav - at skabe værdi for kunderne.

Jeg har arbejdet med vandfald, agile og SAFe i mange forskellige roller med opgaver som kravs-kvalitetssikring, test eksekvering, test design, test automatisering, test management, QA-ledelse og test proces/ strategi definition og udrulning.

Min QA-filosofi er, at det hele handler om mennesker. Dette gælder i alle henseender lige fra kunderne til mine kollegaer, og i rollen som QA professionel hvor de fleste af os er autodidakte.

Fun fact: Jeg er helt og aldeles afhængig af salmiak lakrids.
