From all of the team here at Ministry of Testing, welcome to 2023! 🎉
Thank you to the hundreds of people who have put themselves forward to speak/run a session at this year’s TestBashes. It’s incredible! The abstracts demonstrate a whole wealth of knowledge and it’s lovely to see folks are up for sharing.
And here’s the other cool bit. You as a community member can share your thoughts on those abstracts. There’s a simple review system in place and every piece of feedback helps Team MoT shape the conferences and provide feedback to everyone who doesn’t make the line-up. It’s super rewarding to spend five or so minutes reviewing some abstracts. Plus, you get a sneak peek at ideas to inspire your own learning. Good stuff!
Mark Winteringham recently launched a new call for contributions for 99 Minute Workshops. Share your workshop idea and if successful, be paid for your efforts. And as if workshops weren’t enough, we’re bringing back Masterclasses — a 45-minute online talk with Q&A. I’m leading the effort and I’d love to hear from you. What topics would you like to learn about? What Masterclass could you run? Send me an email before I officially put out the call for contributions.
Have a good week.
— Simon, CommunityBoss
