The 60th edition of my reading recommendations contains 4 interesting blog posts with various topics that might be of interest for you. Unfortunately I had no time to read more blog posts this week but I want to share the following with you: “The Icky and Good Words In Software Testing”, “Using Google Cloud Test Lab with TeamCity”, “What problems do we have with our test automation?” and “Test Automation – Am I the only one?”.

I highly recommend to read the posts from Katrina and Patrick about test automation, both are really valuable and should keep us thinking about the way we automate things and what is the goal of automation.
