Track/s: Strategy
Roll up for Ben & Ilari’s spectacular testing circus! Our gates are open for both testers and developers alike. The lion tamers and the clowns welcome a healthy mix of both for the show. Take your seats. We’ll dim the lights. The stage will soon be set for spectacles and wonders. Enjoy the show!
This one-day interactive workshop sheds light on some of the most important fundamentals in software testing. Each section has a short introduction followed by a practical exercise or a game. Participation is not compulsory, but strongly encouraged.
We will work our way through:
– testing missions,
– checking & testing,
– safety language,
– modeling,
– focusing/defocusing and
– the generation of test ideas.
There will be puzzles and laughter and a distinct absence of PowerPoint slides, so come along. Be entertained (you may even learn something useful).
Note: This workshop does require that attendees bring a personal laptop.
Please Note: The presentations are intended for attendees only. The presentations page is password protected – contact info@softwaretestpro.com for verification of attendance and the password to access the presentation.
