Changing careers into software development is always an interesting story and Rani Zilpelwar's story is no different. In this episode, Rani, the QA developer turned software consultant, talks about how she's held almost every software role at one point or another, and how she's continuing to improve her skills now as a software consultant. The discussion includes books and websites she's found helpful to building up her knowledge, how the company she works for helped set her up for success by pairing her with a more experienced developer as a mentor when she started out, and now how / why she blogs on her own site to give back and solidify the things she's learning. Rani's deep knowledge of testing also lends itself well to her new role and she and the team discuss testing strategies and best practices from her days as a QA engineer. This is a great episode if you're looking to make your own career transition and see how other skills can apply there.Panel Carl Mungazi Paige Niedringhaus TJ VanToll Guest Rani Zilpelwar Sponsors Dev Heroes Accelerator React Error Monitoring | Sentry Links Interview Cake Grokking the System Design Interview Emotional Intelligence 2.0 by  Travis Bradberry and Jean Greaves Captivate: The Science of Succeeding with People by Vanessa Van Edwards Captivate: The Science of Succeeding with People by Vanessa Van Edwards (Audible) Code Kata React Status Frontend Focus Programming Digest How to Write Good Unit Tests | Elevate your Code JavaScript End to End Testing Framework | cypress.io BDD Testing &amp; Collaboration Tools for Teams | Cucumber WebDriverIO Pact Tests Percy Elevate your Code Linkedin: Rani Zilpelwar Software is our craft | 8th Light Careers | 8th Light Picks Carl- Fullstack Node.js by David Guttman  Carl- Boost Note - An open sourced markdown editor for developers  Carl- Ignite Hubs | Re-imagining learning to inspire young minds  Paige- Riviera (TV series)  Rani- Refactoring by Martin Fowler, with Kent Beck  Rani- Smiling Mind  TJ- Key Light | elgato  Special Guest: Rani Zilpelwar.
