In this book, I’ve distilled the most relevant & evergreen info I've collected from doing 600+ industry interviews over the past decade — into daily, bite-sized snippets for your QUICK & EASY consumption.

That means you're getting key insights from some of the smartest E2E testers I've had the privilege to interview on my Test Guild podcasts.

My goal is to provide you with valuable (and actionable) tips, tools, best practices, and positive mindset shifts that you can easily apply to your daily software testing efforts, career - and even life in general. Show less

I’ve been using HP Service Test since its initial 1.0 release. There was little documentation and next to zero information on the web to help me get started.

I’ve been using HP Service Test since its initial 1.0 release. There was little documentation and next to zero information on the web to help me get started.

With the release of UFT API testing, I felt most people who were new to the product would be looking for a resource to help get them up to speed quickly. Also, I believe that with the industry-wide adoption of Agile’s development process, the need for test automation engineers to understand and be able to create API level test has become critical.

This book is what I wished I had when I first began using UFT API testing. I’m adopting a “hands-on” approach, and have tried to include practical examples and pithy explanations for all the concepts presented. This is not meant to be an exhaustive look at every aspect of UFT API but rather to serve as a quick-start workbook. Hopefully, this book will save you some time (and headaches) by painlessly getting you up to speed on UFT API testing. Show less
