This book is written as a guide for aspiring and existing staff-level testing professionals, whether they have the formal title or not. Often, it’s the nature of the work - a pattern rather than an explicit title. It can be a way to expand your career if you want to.
I just received my first royalties from @leanpub for the #GoatsBook
https://leanpub.com/goatsbook/
I used most of the funds to clear my Leanpub backlog/wishlist. :) If you have a book there and just got a sale this could be why.
