Portland, October 2018

I mentioned this on twitter, but it’s worth calling out here directly as well. I will be talking about modern testing (and giving a workshop on web testing tools) at the Pacific Northwest Software Quality Conference in early October, 2018 (full details on the PNSQC site).

This isn’t my first time to PNSQC – I was there in 2009 and 2010 where I made presentations to support these papers:

While I despise the Timbers, I do love Portland, and it’s a really wonderful city to visit, and I welcome the excuse to spend a few days there.

Also worth mentioning is that I’m attempting to take a break from conferences in 2019, so PNSQC will be the last conference (in-person, at least) I attend for the foreseeable future. So – if you’re looking for a good test and quality conference in a fun city – or you want to hang out with me (or even both), I hope to see you in Portland.

    I’m a big fan of exploratory testing. I’ve used the approach long before I knew what it was called and think it’s the core of good testing. it’s so ingrained in the general approaches I’ve used in my career that I often don’t differentiate between exploratory testing and plain-old-testing (I’ve gone as far to say…
