About Benjamin Bischoff

I, Benjamin Bischoff, spent the first 15 years of my career as a software developer and trainer, mainly in the fields of web applications and games. In 2016, after getting fascinated with Selenium, I decided to make test automation my main career.

I work for trivago N.V. in Düsseldorf, Germany as Global Test Automation Engineer within the core QA team overlooking the company's main projects. I have vast experience in both frontend and backend testing and develop frameworks, strategies and pipelines to help unify and simplify our automation and testing.

I am the author of the book "Writing API Tests With Karate" and maintain some open source projects. Also, I am a seasoned conference speaker and author on testing, automation and software craftsmanship topics.

More information about my journey into test automation can be found in the blog post From Developer to Test Automation Engineer.

My past and future conference talks can be on the events page.
