Let your IT Test Garden Grow
Toby unlocks the fiddly hassles of software and IT test management. Toby plans your testing like his garden plot He plans what needs to be tested, how to test, who to test and gives his own individual twist on what to be added, what needs to be changed and what needs to be chopped off.

Focused Test Landscaping
From harassing developers (we love you) for their Unit Reports and from identifying all that needs to be planned in the testing phases and all the way to giving kudos to the project managers for your recommendation, Toby has been there, seen it and got the t-shirt and has a lovely (test) garden to show for it!
And just about enough hair...
Doing and Designing
Management is easy.... as they don't say!!
Being a Test Manager is also not easy, but ... with over 20 years of hands-on and delivery experience, Toby uses all the techniques and tricks for design and execution.
Toby's test management style allows for the best industry techniques to be used and also mentors and shares these skils with his peers and juniors....
As any good garderner should!
Data and Environments
Let Toby deal with that stuff.....
Clear, Concise and Meaningful Reporting
After 25 years of professional Testing, Toby knows that even for all the best preparation and execution for testing one can do, if that hard work isn't commuinicated then it might all be for nothing.
Toby makes test progress reporting and problem management an easy and digestible thing for the Manager who just needs to know what's happening!!!
Let your Test Manager be this person..
Toby (yes, that IS me) drives test projects like his garden - steady, accurate, functional, happy, satisfied and always room for development but, ultimately... coming up flowers!
In Toby we Trust...
I think I am great at the test garden, but you need more than my word for that!
Fortunately, other people think I'm great too....

Toby’s strengths lie in managing and guiding test projects from start to finish ensuring he doesn’t lose sight of the technical and business objectives. He brings a good degree of calm (and humour) to his work and is one of the most respected people I know.
- International Wealth Manager IT Director
I had the opportunity to work closely with Toby, as the test lead, on a global program. The testing effort was for over 20 applications, in my area, and it went smoothly. The applications had different timelines and some were dependent on each other. Toby and I were in regular communication and he was transparent with the risks and issues he faced. Toby also adjusted the testing resources when necessary and he hit all of his milestones on budget. It was a pleasure working with him and I would welcome the chance to work with him again.
