Jan Å Pontéus
Test Manager
Swedish Tax Agency
Sweden Chapter Leader
- Runs
improvement projects.
- Over 15
years within SW test; as test lead in telecom, process/method specialist
- Likes the
”vertical” approach: Processes, methods and tools to be mastered by one
person/team to optimize all layers, Including the world around us (ITIL…).
- Likes to hold
courses, typically in test theory or crash courses in ALM
- Background
in HW (telecom, professional audio). Almost as fun as test tools and processes.
”The main purpose, I
think, with a community like Vivit, is to give colleagues the possibility to
meet in an informal way. Some people you may know a long time. Some are new. All have
something valuable to tell. Since the best information you can get is the information
you didn’t asked for (because you didn’t know it existed), informal meetups are
essential for getting you out of your box. Many of us struggle with everyday
chores, but by meeting others, whether they have gone further or share your
situation, you get new strength. Add the presentations and the possibility to
share thoughts with HPE staff, time spent at Vivit meetings is generally really rewarding.”
