Chris got into test automation nearly 20 years ago as a developer practicing TDD at an early Agile adopter, and today he speaks internationally on DevOps, test automation, and AI at conferences like TestCon Europe, STAREAST, and KCDC. He also hosts the Developers Who Test podcast, where recent episodes have covered testing RAG systems and the DORA AI Capabilities Model. Lately he has been writing about what AI coding agents mean for quality, including his post "Is AI Silently Disappearing Your Features?" and "The Design Pattern AI Companies Don't Want You to Know," published June 15, 2026.
