About Me!
Known as the “Pragmatic Manager”, Rothman is an expert in managing high technology product developments. She provides frank advice—often with a little humor—for your tough problems. Rothman first became a tester in 1985, because “I was too stupid to be a developer” according to one of her interviewers. In 1988, she first started managing a test group. Since then, she has started her business, Rothman Consulting Group, and has managed testers, coached testers, or coached project managers in what they should—and shouldn’t—expect from testers.
