About us

🚨 IMPORTANT INFORMATION 🚨

We have some exciting news! As part of our move into the MoTaverse, the Ministry of Testing Berlin group is officially migrating away from [Meetup.com.](http://meetup.com./)

Going forward, we are now known as a Chapter, and we have a brand-new home where all our future events, photos, and talks will live.

### Why the move?

By joining us on the new Chapter page, your participation now counts toward your professional growth. In the MoTaverse, you’ll earn stars and badges for attending events, which display directly on your MoT profile to showcase your contributions to the community.

It’s all part of our goal to provide "Community-as-a-Service"—bringing learning, events, and networking into one seamless experience.

### What you need to do:

To stay in the loop for our upcoming Berlin events and news, please head over to our new page and join the Chapter:

👉 Join the MoT Berlin Chapter Here

We’ll be phasing out this [Meetup.com](http://meetup.com/) group soon, so make sure you make the jump today so you don't miss our next gathering!

For a deeper look at why we’re making these changes, you can check out Rosie Sherry's post: Meetups are now Chapters.

See you in the MoTaverse!

🎤 Quality Talks
AI Test Generation: What Actually Works (and What Doesn’t)

Ruslan Strazhnyk - Founder & CEO @ QualityMax
Every QA tool vendor will tell you AI generates perfect tests. After building an AI test generation platform - and dogfooding it on our own codebase - I can tell you what actually happens. This talk is a practitioner’s honest debrief. I’ll walk through two years of running multi-model AI against real web apps: what produces usable tests, what produces confident-looking garbage, and where the failure modes hide.
Specifically, I’ll cover:
- Why reading code isn’t enough - AI generates plausible tests from source, but they fail on real UIs. Crawling the live app changes everything.
- The selector problem - LLMs reach for brittle CSS selectors by default. How to force better strategies without prompt-engineering every call.
- Assertions that rot - AI loves asserting exact text and prices. Why your generated suite breaks on the first content change, and how to catch it before CI does.
- Multi-model routing - no single model wins at everything. What we learned running GPT-4o, Claude, and Gemini on the same flows.
- Self-healing in practice - the gap between “it healed” and “it healed correctly.”
You’ll leave with a clear framework for evaluating any AI test generation tool - or building your own - based on what the output actually does under pressure, not what the demo shows.
Level: Intermediate, assumes familiarity with Playwright or similar frameworks
