vodQA Hamburg: It's not easy being a QA

About the talk:
"Oh, you're the rare species of QA" - some people say.

What do actually QAs at ThoughtWorks do? What are the particular challenges of being a QA, and how can the teams support them to succeed?

In this session, Lina and Steve will share what QAs at ThoughtWorks get to do, why sometimes it's not easy being a QA, and how QAs can be helped in order to see the real benefits of this role.

About vodQA:
vodQA, short for Value Oriented Discussion on Quality Analysis, is a ThoughtWorks sponsored meet up for Quality Enthusiasts run primarily in India. It is a forum to network, share and learn from each other.
So far, we have successfully hosted 30+ editions of vodQA across all ThoughtWorks India offices. vodQA aims at taking you to another level altogether, where you get a wider perspective of testing.
We would like to bring this event to Germany and organise first ever event in our very own Hamburg office! Let us meet more evangelists to talk and learn about the vast spectrum of testing realms.
