1. Please explain your area of expertise.
Testing and trouble shooting in general and seeing faults where other people
overlook the faults.
Sometime it feels like I can smell where the faults are and I am a quick learner.

2. What are your intentions as a senior specialist?
I have not thought about that yet, it might relate to my key challenge below.

3. What do you see as your key challenges?
To get testers to be more destructive. Testing is a destructive business and
in comparison to design, where they are constructive and building the code.
Testing is all about tearing the software apart and finding the weak spots in it.
I say that "A test case executed that did not find a fault is a waste of time and
money".

4. What is your background?
I have a Master of Science degree from "KTH Royal Institute of Technology"
in Stockholm.
I started at Ericsson 1991 for Wireline at TN in Stockholm.
I have worked with Function test, system test and some system design
for SUS-subsystem and later the ISDN-E in IUSAM.
After that I went to Aachen, Germany in 1997 for a 6 month project in
Mobile systems. For some reason I'm still in Germany.
In Germany I have done Function Test and System Test (I&V)
both GSM and UMTS in non layer and layer architecture Mobile system.
In 2007 I started to work with IMS when the IMS I&V department was formed
here at EDD.

5. Tell us something about yourself that we don't know and
couldn't guess.
I have a wife and a daughter that is 18 years old. I like sports (looking at) movies,
reading books and especially relaxing on a beach in a warm country somewhere
in the world.
I see myself as calm, patient and a good listener. As curiosity, I can say that it
happens now and then that my wife and I take the car in the morning, drives 250 km
to the coast (in Netherlands), stay on the beach the whole day and then drive the
250 km back to Aachen. That would have been an impossible idea when we lived
in Stockholm, but what can one do when you live in Aachen and the coast is far
away.
