Summary
I am an experienced test professional with a focus on test management and technical testing. I
have worked with business-critical projects for e.g. UFST (technical tester), SOS International
(test SME), PFA Pension (test manager), Edlund (test SME) and Volkswagen Financial Services
(test manager and technical tester).
As a test manager, I aim at a risk-based approach to testing, ensuring that the most critical tests
are tested first. This is embedded in both the test strategy and test plan after clarification with
both the business and the developers. This approach means that I experience few critical errors
in production.
I hold a MSc in mathematics and communication. This has meant that I am, on the one hand,
analytical and logical thinking, and regardless of the domain, I am able to break down the
complexity using analysis and testing techniques. On the other hand, I communicate at eye
level and manages to understand what motivates people.
I have filled roles from test analyst to test manager and test architect to technical tester. I
always brings my deep passion for software testing and quality assurance to any project I am
part of.
I help my colleagues to become better testers, as I am constantly striving to raise the level in
testing. According to me, it is only when knowledge is shared and used that it adds value. I am
curious and an excellent problem solver with a pragmatic and analytical approach to my work.

Description I worked with evaluating the system for applying and paying out EU agricultural subsidies. The system is SOA-based and is developed in a Microsoft framework. The project's goal is the new development and maintenance of the Danish Agency for Agriculture's system for managing the Danish CAP EU funds. The system was one of the first to use NemID for logging in and signing.
Responsibilities I was responsible for preparing mini-test strategies for all major assignments.
In addition, initiate a defect process. Review and analysis of requirements, prepare test designs, cases and plans. I performed integration-, system- and functional testing of the system, both manual and automated using SoapUI with a data-driven approach. The test was performed on both new system features and bug fixes, and as regression testing. I tested the customer portal that used NemID for logging in and signing.
Results I initiated a defect process which was shared with the Danish Agency for Agriculture. In SoapUI, I created a complete test suite with positive and negative tests for one of the system's service operations. Together with one of the developers, I executed an integration test of an external mapping server.
The test was data-driven and quite effective; only one minor bug was found when the integration went into production.
