What we’re about
We are a community of test leaders who guide teams in delivering quality software faster while building resilient, high-performing testing capabilities. Our goal is to create a supportive space where test leaders stay current with evolving technologies, share proven approaches for accelerating value delivery, and develop strategies that strengthen their teams' impact and adaptability.
This group is designed for test managers, QA directors, quality engineering leads, testing principals, and equivalent roles who lead testing initiatives and influence quality practices within their organizations. Recognizing the strong overlap between testing, development, and product leadership, we welcome leaders from all disciplines involved in quality delivery. To ensure meaningful discussions, membership is focused on those currently in testing leadership roles or actively transitioning into one.
Our Focus Areas:
Staying Current with Technology: Your team's skills are becoming outdated as new testing tools emerge daily. Learn the latest AI-driven testing approaches, explore modern automation frameworks that integrate seamlessly with DevOps pipelines, and discover cutting-edge methodologies that industry leaders are using to stay ahead of the technology curve. Transform your team into early adopters who drive innovation rather than play catch-up.
Accelerating Value Delivery: Quality gates are slowing down your release cycles and frustrating stakeholders. Master shift-left testing strategies, implement continuous testing practices that catch issues earlier, and adopt performance optimization techniques that enable faster feedback loops without compromising quality standards. Become the team that accelerates delivery while enhancing product quality.
Building Team Resilience: Your testing team struggles with constant change and mounting pressure from all directions. Develop leadership skills that inspire confidence, learn change management approaches that help teams adapt quickly, and implement capability-building frameworks that create sustainable growth and team satisfaction. Lead a team that thrives under pressure and grows stronger with every challenge.
We host monthly events featuring experienced test leaders who share their transformation journeys, proven strategies, and hard-earned lessons.
Our events typically include a speaker session followed by networking opportunities, allowing members to build valuable connections that support their leadership growth. Occasionally, we may introduce workshops or panel discussions to better serve our community's needs.
We welcome test leaders interested in speaking at our events and organizations looking to support testing leadership by hosting a gathering.
