The TestLion Pride origin story

Once you join Testlio, you become a TestLion. Our CEO Steve Semelsberger came up with that term after having met our founder Kristel for the first time. Her big and wild blond hair created a lion-like mane around her head. “Has it occurred to you that if you put an N to the end of your company’s name, it becomes a TestLion? Which also matches with Kristel’s hair.” And that’s how the name was invented. And what do you call a team of lions? Of course, a pride.
