Coming back to my motherland
Having returned I have been busy adjusting myself
for the work ahead.
Making myself to post this
Ajay Balamurugadas Esq. made me to put this blog
post today. Yes it came through!.
Making me indeed a citizen of the world
My Beloved Delhi, India!!! After twenty long years
I came back to you with a heart replete with gratitude for having me treated in
my very young years of this life where I had my University education in India, took
initiation to mould me into the person I am today, carrying all the good values
you gifted me making me indeed a citizen of the world having faced lot of
obstacles!!! Thank you ever so much, thank you, thank you!!! Lucky me…
It is true, selfless love, that is what India is to
me, that is what the people are for me!!!. Now I am back home with a heart that
is literally bursting out of gratitude, love and joy at being able to taste,
feel, enjoy and truly appreciate the mother India through their food, the colours
and the most special people I have known all my life!!!.
Extremely fortunate in my life
I am extremely fortunate to get this word
“Persistence” with a star from James Bach Esq. with his signature on this
certificate.
Also I was very fortunate enough to learn a wide
range of Software Testing from these world renowned experts when they attended and
spoke in ThinkTest 2015 and also in RST class in Delhi, India.
How I got this chance? Was it a miracle? Or it is
because of my persistence? Or helping nature of Indians and testing experts
like James Bach? Yes, answer is all.
I saw there was a post by Santhosh Tuppad Esq. saying
that “If you post a question and if James Bach selects it then you will get a
free seat for the Conference”.
Oh, this made me feel diligence to get this free
seat. I quickly posted a question. Yes!. Mrs. Smita Mishra replied to my
e-mail.
My dream came through. I got the free seat for the
conference and for the RST class. Many people helped me to achieve this seat.
They are Smita, Ajay and James. There are many more
in the list.
I had to face lot of obstacles to attend this
conference and the RST Class. I won at last!. Yes I won!. Gods’ grace!. Lucky
me…
Within a week all the arrangements were done and I
got a new job too. Yes it is because of Gods’ grace.
The benefits I got from this
valuable event are I came to know better ways of finding important bugs in a
short time and also met really valuable personalities. I learnt the exact
definition of Software testing then I learnt what is coverage, what is oracle,
what is a procedure which were not known properly before. I learnt Testing is
not test cases, Patterns of a "good" Test Automation Framework, then
building agility for automated Mobile Apps testing, How to transition our
career from Manual Tester to CTO, most valuable learning "50+ tips to
improve Tester - Programmer Relationship" which we definitely need to know
to have a good relationships with our developers, Your Data is no more ONLY
your data which was another valuable speech, Truthful test estimations etc.
I did a presentation also
after I came back to Sri Lanka from the knowledge I gathered from ThinkTest
2015, RST class and James’s special individual teaching. Yes I made it!. Majority
feedback was excellent.
Token of appreciation
Let me have this opportune moment to express my
unreserved gratitude, a very special thanks and esteem to your good selves (My Parents, Ajay
Balamurugadas Esq., James Bach Esq., Mrs. Smita Mishra, Michael Bolton Esq., Santhosh
Tuppad Esq., and last but not

wife Madam Sujata Prabhakar) having showered so much of unexpected
opportunities with a magnanimous gesture and for taking such care to make me
feel so comfortable, that made me feel one with their noble family!!!. You made
me feel really very important so much so that I have no explanation to offer, I
was well received and looked after and they were landmark days for me.
Let me once again express my deepest gratitude to all
of you and I feel very happy that I have been well accepted.

obstacles helped me to make myself without giving up. Yes they made me to have
a determination. I succeeded. I made my dream true.
