Paul has been working in QA and testing since the early 2000s and test automation since about 2006. He has built both end-to-end and microservice testing frameworks and has used Selenium in multiple languages. In Selenium’s early days he was a major contributor to the Selenium 1.0 documentation. Paul has always believed in using object-oriented programming for writing easy to read, well-organized tests so when he was exposed to the page object model at the first Selenium conference the technique made immediate sense.
Paul has recently picked up Cypress as an alternative tool preferred by his developers. He is now enjoying bringing the strengths of both tools together for building robust end-to-end automation solutions. Earlier in Paul’s career he was a high-school math teacher and then a software engineering instructor teaching object-oriented programming in C++.
Passing on what he’s learned to others has always been a passion.
