Plus, there will be loads of time to get to know other members of the testing community.

Tickets will be released soon.Who is it for?
Although it’s a testing-focused event, it’s open to anyone working in or around the software development lifecycle with at least basic testing and technical knowledge.
It’s a perfect event for those who want to build on their existing knowledge and experience of testing, who want to come away with practical examples and information that they can use in their role.
