**PLEASE NOTE THE ADDRESS CHANGE! We're now at [w3hub.berlin](https://w3hub.berlin)** [Qase](https://qase.io) is presenting the **twelfth** Meetup on Quality Engineering in Berlin. As usual, we’re bringing you three deep-dive talks, **but also something extremely new and exciting — food testing activity. Don't worry, we won't be the test subjects, we will feed the spectrometer and see if our tests pass or fail :)** **AGENDA** **1\. Sebastian Kasanmascheff\, CEO/Owner @ Altum Solutions:** ***Wetware QA Jumpstart: Hands-On Spectrometer Demo*** Did last meetup’s “Food QA: Testing Tasting” session whet your appetite for wetware testing? Well here is an invitation to turn theory into practice with a live showcase of the device that taste-tests like a human, namely, the spectrometer. Take a leap from the familiar realms of software and hardware into the exotic world of wetware: translate between computer bits and chemical bonds, complement your programmer hoodie with a lab coat, and let us test what is in our food: \- How much protein is really in your protein powder? \- Can you trust the fat content values on your milk packaging? \- What ingredients are hiding in your favourite fast food meal? Learn how to answer such questions by joining the Altum Solutions team for an end-to-end spectroscopy workflow: from sample preparation to ML/AI-enhanced scientific analysis. This same wetware QA pipeline empowers sustainable lab automation across Big Food, AgriTech, and Pharma 4.0. **BYOB — Bring Your Own Bytes/Bites** **2\. Jaideep Naik\, Senior Software Engineer: *The Migration Hell: From Ghost Inspector to Cypress*** Jaideep will share his lessons from a 12-month test automation migration from Ghost Inspector (low-code) to Cypress (code-first). Limited planning led to flaky tests, slow CI pipelines, and lost trust in automation. Covers the key challenges — skills gap moving to JavaScript, tightly coupled tests, inefficient Page Object Model, UI-based auth bottlenecks, static test data, no coding standards — and the solutions that fixed them: phased migration, page-based POM with standardized locators, API-based auth, dynamic test data, and PR reviews from the start. **3\. Radik Zagirov\, Founder @ Agentiqa: Quality Is Binary: Why Your Coverage Metrics Don't Matter After the First Escalation** Radik argues that shipping code has become essentially free — AI writes code, CI/CD deploys it. But quality hasn't kept up. The bottleneck has shifted to people and processes, and business perceives quality as binary: everything works, or QA failed. One escalation erases months of coverage improvements and process building. Radik will share his understanding, that the answer isn't better testing but rather better communication. How to explain QA's value in the language of money, risk, and speed, and how to build "opportunity tunnels" — systematic channels that make QA's impact visible before an incident forces the conversation. **4\. Anupam Krishnamurthy\, Head of AI Testing @ TestSolutions GmbH:** **Ensemble Testing of an LLM Application** Earlier in November, Anupam demonstrated how we could test LLMs by using the LLM-as-a-judge approach. In that session, somebody asked, how can we trust an LLM to judge another LLM? In this session, we put LLM judges to the test. We'll do some live testing to have an LLM judge evaluate an existing RAG application. We'll then put up the results on the big screen and take a look together, to verify if our LLM judge is working as expected. In other words, everybody in the room will judge the judge. Can an LLM judge survive the scrutiny of a hundred pair of expert eyes? Come and find out in this live ensemble testing session.

**💶 Wertschätzungsbeitrag: 10-20 Euro (nach eigenen Möglichkeiten)** **Du möchtest Deine Freundschaften, Partnerschaft & Arbeitsbeziehungen verbessern? Dieser Worskhop kann ein großer Schritt dazu sein.** Beziehungs- und Bindungstypen sind ein weit verbreitetes Modell, um typisches Verhalten in verschiedensten Beziehungen erklären. Warum klammert jemand? Warum Drama? Warum Rückzug? Warum Kälte? Warum Unsicherheit, Nervosität und Ärger? --- und wie sieht eine sichere & gute Beziehung aus (und fühlt sich an). Die Annahme: Ereignisse der frühen Kindheit & der Erziehungsstil unserer Eltern prägen, wie wir als Erwachsene unsere Partnerschaften, Freundschaften & Arbeitsbeziehungen leben. Für manche gut. Für manche weniger gut. Ich setze mich mit den Beziehungstypen auseinander, weil ich glaube, dass sie einen wesentlichen Einfluss auf die Gestaltung von Freundschaften haben (und auf Liebesbeziehungen sowie menschliche Beziehungen jeglicher Art). Dabei habe ich entdeckt, dass ich oft einen vermeidenen Beziehungsstil habe - ich weiche lieber aus, trenne mich oder spreche Probleme nicht an, weil ich wahrscheinlich in meiner Kindheit aus unterschiedlichen Ereignissen gelernt habe... dass bringt eh nichts, ich kann anderen nicht vertrauen, das macht man nicht, meine Bedürfnisse sind nicht wichtig, usw. In der Auseinandersetzung mit den Beziehungs- / Bindungstypen habe ich bemerkt, wie gut es mit tut, mit anderen mich darüber auszutauschen. Weil: * Ich bin nicht allein. * Ich lernen die Gefühle anderer kennen * Ich entwickle ein gutes Gefühl für die anderen Beziehungsstile (nicht nur meinen) * Ich löse das Thema für mich Schritt für Schritt - und werde immer sicher in meinen Bindungen & Beziehungen. In eine Workshop-Beschreibung zu schreiben, dass ich mich oft beim vermeidenden Beziehungsstil entdecke... ist kein Vermeiderverhalten mehr 😊. Halleluja! . **🎁 Das kannst erwarten** Ich lade Dich zu diesem Workshop ein, damit Du einen weiteren Schritt Richtung mehr Leichtigkeit & Ehrlichkeit in Beziehung gehen kannst. Ich werde eine kleine Einführung zu den Bindungsstilen geben - und dann steht der Austausch miteinander im Mittelpunkt: * Was sind Situationen, die mich triggern? * Wie geht es mir dann? * Wie reguliere ich mein Nervensystem? Meine Erfahrung ist: Austausch & Offenheit hilft, mit sich selbst und anderen relaxter zu werden. . Ein Link oder ein Buch zur Vorbereitung findest Du weiter unten. Es wäre gut, wenn Du eines von beiden bereits gelesen hättest oder von anderer Seite Vorwissen zu den Bindungstypen / Beziehungstypen hast. . . **⏰ Die Türen sind offen ab 18:15 Uhr. Komm am besten schon 18.15 Uhr** Mantel aufhängen, Toilette, eine Runde schwatzen und los ... . **❓ Darf ein zweites Mal kommen?** Ja, sehr gern. Ich halte es sogar für sinnvoll, mehrfahr zu kommen, wenn Dir der Workshop gefallen hat: Das Thema vertiefen, die eigenen Beobachtungen aus den letzten Wochen verarbeiten und sich mit neuen & alten Bekannten über das Thema weiter austauschen. 💬 **Agenda** 18:15 Uhr - Doors Open & Ankommen 18:30 Uhr - Start des Workshops * Einführung, Vorstellung * Kleines Kennenlernen * Einführung in das Thema durch mich * Verständnisfragen * Verschiedene Austauschrunden mit Vertiefungsfragen (der größte zeitliche Anteil) * Offene Fragen 21:30 Uhr - Ende . Zwischendurch machen wir eine kleine Pause. . Tausche Dich mit Gleichgesinnten über ein wesentliches Thema Deines Lebens aus. Du kannst immer wählen, mit wem Du Dich in welcher Tiefe unterhalten möchtest. Dein Gegenüber natürlich auch :). Nein heißt nein, Ja heißt Ja 🤗 . **🏠 Der Veranstaltungsraum** * Wir haben einen wunderschönen Raum im Kieztreff in Berlin Mitte (mit sauberen Toiletten!). * nähe Hackescher Markt. Sehr gut mit den Öffis zu erreichen. * Wenn Du vor Ort ankommst, ist alles ausgeschildert. . **🎒 Das bringst Du mit ...** * Etwas zu trinken (z.B. deine Wasserflasche, keinen Alkohol!) * Wenn Du magst: Zettel und Stift. * Du solltest satt sein und vorher gegessen haben * Bargeld für den Wertschätzungsbeitrag (10-20 Euro) . 📋 **Kann ich mich vorbereiten?** Ja! Vielen Menschen sind die Beziehungstypen bekannt. Wenn Du etwas Grundwissen hast, ist das sehr nützlich für den Workshop. Ansonsten empfehle ich diesen Link zu lesen: Link: [Welcher Beziehungstyp bin ich?](https://chrisbloom.de/blog/welcher-beziehungstyp-bin-ich-mit-test/) Dieses Buch ist eine sehr gute Einführung in den Workshop. Der Workshop wird sich daran orientieren: * **[Buch: Warum wir uns immer in den falschen verlieben](https://amzn.to/498A9js) (Werbung, Amazon-Link)** [Werbung: Als Amazon-Partner verdiene ich an qualifizierten Verkäufen.] Das Buch orientiert sich an Liebesbeziehungen, die Erkenntnisse sind meiner Meinung nach aber auf alle menschliche Beziehungen anwendbar. 🚫 **Was ist der Workshop nicht:** Der Workshop ist kein therapeutisches Angebot. Dafür bin ich nicht ausgebildet (bisher noch nicht mal im Selbststudium). Wenn Du aufgrund der Erkenntnisse beim Lesen des Buches, der Links oder der Gespräche auf dem Workshop zum Ergebnis kommst, dass eine Therapie für Dich sinnvoll sein kann, dann wäre das ein richtig guter Schritt. . 💫 **Warum der Workshop gut für Dich ist** * Ich glaube: Niemand ist perfekt. (und gleichzeitig deshalb genau richtig 🙂) * Ich glaube, dass jeder in wenigstens minimaler Form manchmal Arten von unsicheren Bindungsverhalten zeigt * Gleichzeitig wird jeder im Leben mit Menschen zu tun haben, die ein unsicheres Bindungsverhalten zeigen. . Mit sich selbst und anderen reflektiert umgehen zu können, finde ich eine zentrale Fähigkeit im Leben. . Ich finde, dass gute menschliche Beziehungen sind der zentrale Schlüssel zu einem erfüllten Leben sind (das finden laut Jacobsstudie übrigens 85 Prozent der Menschen in Deutschland). . Die Bindungstypen / Bindungsverhalten sind meiner Meinung nach ein zentrales Modell, um gute menschliche Beziehungen führen zu können. . 🧑🏼 **Mehr über mich:** Ich forsche seit 5 Jahren zu guten Freundschaften, wie man diese aufbaut und vertieft. Du erfährst mehr über mich auf [www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de](www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de).

**ESMT Insight Hour with Paul M. Achleitner** **Schedule:** 5:30 p.m. - Registration opens 6:00 p.m. - Welcome from host, ESMT Berlin 6:05 p.m. - Talk of Paul M. Achleitner 6:30 p.m. - Discussion and Q&A 7:00 p.m. - Networking, drinks and nibbles will be provided 8:30 p.m. - Close Experience used to accumulate slowly. Today, decisions travel instantly, legitimacy can evaporate overnight, and leaders operate under permanent public scrutiny. So how do you lead and stay legitimate in a world that no longer feels stable? In this ESMT Insight Hour, **[Paul M. Achleitner](https://www.linkedin.com/in/paul-achleitner/)** joins us for a moderated conversation on leadership, corporate legitimacy, and performance in times of geopolitical disruption, digital transparency, and shifting societal expectations. Drawing on more than four decades across Goldman Sachs, Allianz, Deutsche Bank, and multiple supervisory boards, and reflecting the themes of his recent book, *Accelerate Your Experience: Principles for Success in a Fluid World*, Achleitner proposes three interconnected dimensions of modern management: * **Legitimacy** – why companies must earn their place in society beyond financial performance * **Performance** – how sustained value creation requires focus, discipline, and strategic clarity * **Leadership** – what integrity, intellectual humility, and judgment mean in an era of permanent visibility Rather than offering prescriptions, he distills experience into principles on stakeholder dynamics, public attention, geopolitical disruption, AI, crisis management, and the realities of “muddling through.” The conversation will explore: * Why legitimacy has become the decisive constraint for corporations * How leaders balance long-term value creation with short-term scrutiny * What performance really means when underperformance becomes normalized * The evolving role of boards in turbulent environments * Whether experience can, in fact, be “accelerated” Join us for an hour of reflection on leadership under pressure and on what it takes to remain effective, credible, and resilient. Moderated by **[Jörg Rocholl](https://esmt.berlin/person/jorg-rocholl)**[,](https://esmt.berlin/person/jorg-rocholl) President, ESMT Berlin. **About the speaker** **[Paul M.

**Einladung zur Flowgame-Session im Rahmen "Tag der Erde 2026"** In einer Zeit, die für viele von uns unsicher und herausfordernd ist, tragen wir alle auf die eine oder andere Weise Ängste in uns. In dieser Flowgame-Session möchte ich einen Raum öffnen, in dem wir uns diesen Ängsten gemeinsam zuwenden können – im Gespräch, im Austausch und getragen vom Flowgame als Struktur und Halt. Mehr zum FlowGame hier: www.flowgame.net Es geht darum, miteinander ins Gespräch zu kommen: über das, was uns bewegt, was uns Sorgen macht und was uns vielleicht auch Mut gibt. Indem wir unsere Erfahrungen teilen, können wir uns gegenseitig unterstützen und möglicherweise neue Perspektiven und Zuversicht für die Zukunft finden. Im Mittelpunkt steht dabei vor allem der ehrliche Austausch über Ängste – weil sie zu uns gehören und gehört werden wollen. Ich freue mich auf eine achtsame, offene Runde mit euch.

***🔗 Link to registration: [https://luma.com/s8mfiusl](https://luma.com/s8mfiusl)*** We’re excited to invite you to a special edition of our next meetup - for the first time ever, Product Management Society Berlin is teaming up with Miro 🤝 This session will explore a timely topic: the future of the design process in an era of rapidly increasing production speed. While some chief designers at major companies have declared the design process “dead” or no longer fit for today’s pace, others strongly disagree. What changes when prototypes can be created in minutes? What are the limits? What remains essential? In the first part, we’ll open the floor to different perspectives from across the room. In the second part, we’ll work together to explore and shape ideas for a more resilient design process. Whether you're a PM, designer, or simply curious, you’re very welcome to join the discussion and contribute your ideas. 👉 Spots are limited - register on Luma using the link above ^ Looking forward to seeing you there!

A WiA Collective Wisdom Exchange At the start of this year, we gathered to look back, set intentions, and imagine the next chapter. This is the follow-up. Not a check-in. Not a progress report. A small, facilitated circle to reconnect with what you said mattered — and honestly explore what’s actually happening now. Together, we’ll explore: • What you intended at the start of this year - and what that looks like three months in • What’s surprised you, supported you, or shifted • What the next chapter needs now that you know what you know If you were at our January gathering, bring whatever you made or wrote — your word, your artifact, your intention. We’ll look at it with fresh eyes. If this is your first time, you belong here too. You’ll start where we all started: with what’s true right now. Optional art materials will be available for anyone who wants to reflect creatively alongside conversation. If you brought something home from January, you’re warmly invited to bring it back. The intention is the same as always: everyone leaves feeling more clear, more connected, and a little lighter. Space is intentionally limited to keep the experience intimate. What to Expect • A small, welcoming circle (not a large meetup) • Structured conversation so everyone has space to speak • Reflection, listening, and lived experience — not advice-giving • Optional creative reflection alongside conversation • A calm, supportive environment Who This Is For Women and underrepresented folks working in or around agile, product, technology, leadership, or organizational change — especially those looking for honest conversation and community beyond frameworks and buzzwords. Good to Know • No preparation required • If you attended in January, we invite you to bring anything you created or wrote (or something that represents your intention at the start of the year) - it’s optional but invited • Participation is invitational; listening is always welcome • Creative activities are optional
