I was just checking the ol' calendar and have realized it's been awhile since I blogged anything. Strange, since certainly a lot has happened.
I have been finally moved to the automation team in the last week or so. Went to a lunch meeting with my team lead, and VP to discuss what we want to do, and what our direction should be. Game plan is to have me initially maintain the scripts, rather than do development. Fair enough. I know me well enough that as soon as I get the ability to do so, I'll dig right into the code and get started working it out. Gotta learn the tool before you can support it, I suppose. Apparently, though, it's a tool that drives Winrunner via an API. It also is supposed to sort of replace what QTP does, rather than use QTP. I gather that the internal tool meets our needs well enough that an expenditure for QTP isn't worthwhile at present.
Fair enough.
I've not had much chance to do much development lately, seeing as how I've been busy buying a house. I have been reading a good book, though. A review is on the way, too.
