Paul and I have a brief chat about the layers of automation framework design and a few architectural patterns that he will describe in detail at his talk. Paul is also an accomplished keynote speaker and writer, having spoken at both local and national conferences and meetings. He is an adviser to Software Test Professionals and STPCon (www.stpcon.com), as well as a member of the Industry Advisory Board of the Advanced Research Center for Software Testing and Quality Assurance (STQA) at UT Dallas where he is a frequent quest lecturer. Paul enjoys sharing his experiences and learning from other testing professionals; his most cogent thoughts can be read on his blog (https://responsibleautomation.wordpress.com)
