SWTC Cambridge - What is Testing?

Software testing clinic (http://softwaretestingclinic.com/) Cambridge kicks off with an important question:

'What is software testing?'

It may seem like a simple question, but it's an important one to answer as it determines how you fit within a team and how you carry out your work.

In this sessions discussion we will cover the following:

• What is testing and what do testers do?

• The misconceptions of software testing and how to overcome them.

If you are coming as a mentor, make sure you tell us via the RSVP, and provide us with an email address so that we can contact you before the session.

==What is Software Testing Clinic?==

The Software Testing Clinic is a safe environment for anybody who wants
to learn about software testing and enhance their testing skills. SWTC
offers monthly evening sessions for anybody interested in the testing
craft; they are run in an interactive way using whiteboard sessions,
hands-on exercises and discussions with the whole group as well as in
sub teams to deepen our understanding of software testing. You are led
through the evening by a team of hosts, supported by more experienced
testers who can use and enhance their mentoring skills. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
