Reading Time: 3 minutes

The sixth retrospective for this year where I tried a new thing of organizing a team event and completed 14 years in the industry as a tester

Here goes Retrospective May 2024

Retrospective gives you the chance to Pause Think and Act.

You can take corrective actions or take a turn or completely change some paths which are no longer needed

What went well

Year End Party Organizer

  • I was nominated to be the part of the team for organizing the year End Party. So it was financial year end for us.
  • I have participated in the events but not as an organizer ever.
  • Learned how organizing is interesting and difficult stuff at corporate level where you have to take care things are perfect. Be it stage / lighting / employee experience / food / transport / facilities given to employee. All need to be topnotch. I lead it from the Noida location and things went well. Some glimpses below
  • There should not be many decision makers.
  • Take suggestions and make decision, as in volunteering activities things will lag otherwise
  • Have minute to minute details for the day of the event
  • Expect the unexpected. Our bus broke down on the way to venue, we had the back up though

YouTube video

This month I created only 1 video sharing tips which anyone can use whether you are a tester / developer or just a computer user.

Meet up

    • Meetup @ The Test Tribe – I have attended many events in the past organized by TTT virtually, be it #testflix where I gave one talk. Got to meet many fellow testers some were as experienced as 22 years and some freshers. The topic was RAG – RetrievalAugmented Generation. How you can use AI to give output using your own data. Rahul Yadav shared in detail showing code how can we do that

14 years completed in IT as a tester

  • Good to see AI getting integrated in products used by Testers

  • Top mate – Total 4 bookings in this month where people approach to discuss get guidance on testing / automation / mid level career crisis and other topics. Feel free to book a session for a detailed discussion @ Topmate I have started a package service as well which gives you discount

What did not go well?

  • On this blog for last 6 months only retrospective post I could post (this is continuing sadly for many months)
  • Git hub checks in have reduced, have to work on it.
  • Some content planned which could not execute

What’s Ahead in this month

  • Create some shorts and planning a series on something I am working on
  • Make this blog more structured

Hope you have learned something from it. Any suggestions for me, feel free to ping on LinkedIn.
