The job title
Test Lead, MSMQ
MSMQ, huh? Nice Microsoft acronym. Break it down for me.
MSMQ stands for Microsoft Message Queuing, which ships as part of Windows. We’re a messaging platform that developers use if you’ve got an application on Computer A that wants to send information to Computer B, you use us to guarantee that information gets there, even if there’s a failure (e.g. machines burst into flames, someone trips over the Ethernet cable, asteroids, etc.) after you sent the information.
