Heyo 👋 This week was light on work and heavy on chaos, so here’s what I’ve been up to:
🤖 Learning: Automation Testing 101
Since things were quiet on the project side, I focused on learning the tools behind automation testing — and ended up drafting a testing strategy we could actually use in our company.
I was mostly exploring new tools like SonarQube (which I already knew a bit from uni), Azure DevOps, Jenkins, and Applitools. The goal was to understand how they work, how they can fit into our workflow, and where we can start.
Right now, we don’t use any test automation at all, so I tried to come up with a solid starting plan — and my team lead actually approved it! Yay 🎉
📦 Work: Transferring ~20k Server Files (Help.)
So we had to migrate all our server files to a different domain this week. No big deal, just around 20,000 files.
That’s not a typo. Twenty. Thousand.
Let me tell you:
🧠 Me: “This is fine.”
💻 My laptop: wheezes in fan noise
⌛ ETA: “Forever. Maybe longer.”
It eventually finished. I survived. The files (mostly) made it. But for real — next time I’m scripting everything or rage-quitting IT.
🧘♀️ Vibe Check
Chill week overall, with a nice balance of ✍️ strategy work and 😵💫 minor breakdowns over file transfers.
If you’re also deep in automation or digital janitor mode, I feel you. We’re out here doing our best. See you next week 💅
