To the Next Step! Leapfrog Online Acceptance and Side Projects

This post will be shorter but contains a great update:

Leapfrog Online has extended an offer to me as a Test Engineer which I have accepted!  The company focuses on driving marketing and customer support solutions based on customer behavior on client websites by utilizing integrated web systems and services.  The Test Engineer position works primarily in a Python environment using tools that test the unit, system, and function of these web systems and services.

By no means does this entail that this blog will falter or cease completely.  My intention is to continue to provide at-least weekly posts on the tools and environments I will be working in, along with insights and experiences in an entry-level test engineer position.

Outside of this exciting news employment news, I am also at the beginning stages of a potentially exciting side-project with two close friends.  More on that as (and if) it develops into a notable project.

In the short-term, I know I will be working to develop my understanding and experience with the following tools in my new position:

- git
- mechanize
- selenium
- virtualenv
- pip

These tools will undoubtably serve for plenty of fodder for my future blog posts.
