Certified “ISEB/ISTQB Foundation Certificate in Software Testing” in date 11/03/2006 – score 34/40 - in London and member of BCS (British Computer Society). Others.. I've developed a system that can be used to track in real time the position of a vehicle (for example, a truck) that is traveling. This system can be installed onto normal telephonic device (with Symbian O.S and java support) and the position of the vehicles tracked can be monitored in the net. I've developed this system for leisure, not for work. Looking that it can be proficiently used in the real work, now this system is available for anyone interested in this kinds of services.

In the FIAT project we used Mercury Testing Tool (WinRunner and TestDirector) that use a C-like language, called TSL – Testing Tool Language – to create and manage testing scripts used to automate the principal applications functions. Then, to simplify the daily job of our FIAT customer, was also developed a Visual Basic application to simplify the managing of testing script.
