What is- and how to apply- critical thinking?
What can developers learn from testers?
What can testers learn from developers?
How to know what to automate?
How to identify exposure?
How to obtain the "right" coverage?
How to cope with the stress of being "so close to the release always"?
How to get closer to your end-users (e.g. when there is no user research team)?
How to hit the ground running in a new test role?
Building quality thinking into an Agile team
Testing where prototyping w/o specs, w/o up-front design and w/o early involvement of testers, is the dominant development workflow?

Deadline (for proposals) has been reached !!
