The four-hour tester

There are many ways to learn testing. The 4-hour tester is a way that focuses on simple exercises that take at most one hour to complete. The format is quite simple: briefing, exercise, evaluation.

Why don’t you try one right now?

The idea for this site came to us while we were working on our talk for TestBash Manchester 2016: The 4-hour Tester Experiment. (Which in turn was inspired by Timothy Ferriss’s “The 4-Hour Chef”.)
