Two interesting sessions on API testing with @LplTesterGather tonight, and a really useful takeaway message on naming automated tests in a meaningful way, so you can easily identify results #lpltester

Thanks to BBC for an interesting evening at Media City with #TestTheBBC. Some great talks incl. considerations of testing voice interfaces & how the team tea making process can parallel software delivery!
Really worthwhile evening spent at Manchester Test Boss with @CorecomIT. Great atmosphere, interesting GDPR presentation and plenty of networking & discussion opportunities. #TestBoss

How to downgrade your Android OS in 5 Easy Steps. 1 - Download firmware version. 2 - Download Odin. 3 - Brick your 'phone. 4 - Watch YouTube...a lot. 5 -Experiment/test/repeat until successfully Lollipopped! (optional Step 6 - celebratory beer!).
My challenge for the weekend - to see if I can downgrade my old Galaxy S5 from Marshmallow to Lollipop. What could possibly go wrong? #notanandroiddev
Maybe not that surprised at how many of the barriers in @rocketbootkid #talkingabouttesting are rattling around in my head. Time to convince myself to quiet some of my excuses and start the journey! #UKSTARconf
