SOA Testing
Date: Friday, April 25
Time: 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM
Description: In this workshop we will focus on testing in a Service Oriented Architecture. We will be looking for experience reports covering test planning and estimating; experience reports that talk about functional, performance, security, regression, and interoperability testing; and experience reports and demos that show off tools designed specifically for the SOA environment.
Testers who write code
Date: Friday, September 26
Time: 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM
Description: In this workshop we will focus on those aspects of testing where we write code. There will be a strong focus on performance, automation, and security testing. A lot of discussion around tools, languages, frameworks, and design patterns. We will be looking for experience reports from people willing to share project stories, examples, and we would be willing to entertain proposals for hands-on coding activities during the workshop.
About IWST:
The Indianapolis Workshops on Software Testing (IWST) are an ongoing series of no-cost workshops for experienced software testers and related professionals. IWST strives to build skills in software testing and allows people who are interested in topics in software testing to network with their peers. The emphasis is on mutual learning, sharing hands-on experiences and solving practical problems. In these meetings, experienced working practitioners discuss pertinent state-of-the-art topics. IWST has been organized by a small team of local practitioners in the field of software testing.
