First talk:
Nowadays, systems have become more and more complicated and dynamic. Testability is not just a problem from the code perspective but has shifted to a product level.
Designing a test case isn't the only challenge for Quality Assurance any more. Product-improving techniques such as big data, machine learning, and AI all pose effects on the test case, including the outcome. To verify the outcome as the correct result is becoming an oracle problem, which forms a prominent issue in testing.
Metamorphic testing has been looked at by most companies and researches as a solution to the oracle problem.
During this Meetup Session, we explore the concept and review some examples of how to combine it with other techniques.
Meet Yang Liu from Booking.com:
Yang (Flint) Liu has been a quality engineer for over 8 years. Currently, he is working for Booking.com as Lead QA Automation and supporting about 20 teams.
Yang is a passionate software engineer in the testing range. He helped more than 10 teams to build automation infrastructures from scratch, at well-known companies such as National Australian Bank, Alibaba, Baidu, and REA Group.
These days he focuses on quality engineering, test case generation, auto-verification, bug localization, and auto-fix.
Second talk: Tariq Ettaji - Xebia - Reliability and You: SREngineering Culture
The stuff you’re building is continually pushed to production, tests are succeeding, everything is monitored, nobody has to worry about anything. Whoops, something breaks… how do you deal with that? And how do you make sure your development doesn’t grind to a halt, keeping both you and your end users happy? Google has “open sourced” their way of working called Site Reliability Engineering, which attempts to answer those questions and provides concrete guidelines on how to enable a healthy engineering culture.
In this interactive session, we’re going to explore SRE’s methods and together apply them to a couple of scenarios each of us has probably experienced first-hand.
