Experiences of Software Testing in Agile Projects - A Panel Discussion Facilitated by Gillian Clark.

Continuing our series on Software Testing within Agile software development, we have gathered both testers and consultants from a range of companies who practice Agile techniques for a panel discussion.  Gillian Clark from Assurity Consulting, who is a founding member of the Agile Professionals Network, will facilitate.

This event brings together those with real experience implementing Agile practices in their day to day work life.  We plan to cover topics such as,

  • How Agile is your company?
  • The tester's roles in the team?
  • How does testing work within your Agile projects?
  • What has changed about your testing practices e.g. Regression Tests and Automation?

The event will be a mixture of sharing experiences, questions from the audience and panel discussion.  Join us for a lively and fun event.

Drinks will be available at a cash bar (cash only).
