Back to original languageAbout Nicolas
Web tester for 14 years, I help teams deliver working products.
I've held roles as QA Coach, Lead QA, and QA Manager, with significant expertise in end-to-end test automation and API testing. I know how to test (exploratory testing, regression testing, test strategy) and I promote collaboration within teams to build maximum quality in fast-paced contexts (shift left, agile testing, continuous delivery).
I am autonomous, able to quickly acquire new skills (I often test new tools), and adapt to the context. I have good interpersonal skills and I'm called "sticky fingers" because I often find the bugs that others miss!
I enjoy transmitting and sharing my knowledge; I am co-organizer of Ministry of Testing Paris and ParisTestConf.
