  • Summary

  • A weekly mini podcast detailing my experiences as a QA professional working in videogames, with both autism and ADHD. Each week I'll be discussing some neurodivergent-related topic followed by a games quality topic (which I always cover in exactly 500 words... mostly). These are based on my own experiences and opinions, research, discussions with other professionals and neurospicy individuals, and are intended to provide insight, guidance, thought provoking ideas and a little bit of venting for me!

    QAuDHD #21 - You Also Have To Win To Play
    Sep 30 2024

    Good Monday one and all!

    This episode is... a bit of a rant. It's not aimed at anyone in particular, and I didn't realise until I'd chosen the topic just how much I felt I needed to get off my chest. Hopefully it's still useful and interesting information, but at the very least, I feel better now!

    As always: please share, drop in comments and let me know your thoughts/suggestions for future topics. Thank you for reading/listening! ❤️

    Sep 23 2024

    And we're back to the Monday routine!

    Which is appropriate, because this week's QAuDHD is all about routines and consistency, both in terms of the calming effect they can have on my autistic brain (countered by the boredome felt by my ADHD brain) and their importance when it comes to game quality efforts.

    I hope you enjoy this week's issue and, as always: please share, drop in comments and let me know your thoughts/suggestions for future topics. Thank you for reading/listening! ❤️

    QAuDHD #19 - That Could Have Gone One of Two Ways
    Sep 17 2024

    Happy Tuesday everyone! Sorry for the delay (I was ill)...


    This week's QAuDHD is all about planning, because as Jim always says, it's better to be pre-pre-pre-prepared! I'll be talking about my tendency to plan even mundane interactions ahead of time like I'm writing dialogue trees in an RPG, and the importance of conducting risk analysis as part of your test planning efforts.


    I hope you enjoy this week's issue and, as always: please share, drop in comments and let me know your thoughts/suggestions for future topics. Thank you for reading/listening! ❤️
