Do you want to learn how to coach software testers to be skilled at what they do, using a systematic approach? Coaching, unlike training puts the student at the centre of the session. You coach on what the student wants to learn , with the goal of empowering and motivating the student.

Venus.js in an open source software testing tool developed by LinkedIn that allows you to organize and run your entire JS testing system with a single tool using Node.js. Venus eliminates repetitive tasks and friction points and lets you focus on writing tests instead of running them.
eBay’s European quality engineering team has broad experience implementing end-to-end test automation in different software development environments (agile, waterfall, co located , outsourced, distributed). This presentation illustrates the key lessons learned from a technical and business perspective.
One of the biggest challenges in writing test automation scripts comes in keeping pace with the rapid changes of the application under test. One small “critical” change made by a dev at midnight can result in hours of painful investigation and test script repair for you the next morning(s).
James Waldrop of Twitter discusses the tools, process and philosophy that goes into performance testing at Twitter. Particular emphasis will be placed on the Iago open source load testing library, which he wrote to enable Twitter’s engineering teams to perform load tests before deploying code to production. This presentation dives into implementation details of some of these tests (including source code) and how complicating factors such as OAuth and arbitrary Thrift protocols are managed.
