Tools for Exploratory Testing

Welcome to another Ministry of Testing Manchester meetup. This meetup is going to focus on the use of tools to assist with Exploratory Testing.

When we talk about tools in the context of the Software Testing the conversation usually veers towards automated tests. However, that is only one use for the abundance of tools at the disposal of someone doing some software testing. At this meetup we are going to put these tools in the spotlight.

We are very pleased to have this meetup hosted and sponsored by PwC Manchester.

Agenda:

5.30 - 6.00 - Arrival

6.00 - 6.05 - Welcome

6.05 - 6.50 - We are going to hear from three speakers, 15mins each, who are going to share their experiences with using tools for exploratory testing.

Tracey Kerr, Test Analyst at Nexer Digital

Omar Cheema, Test Manager @ Sonata Plus

Bryan Elder, Quality Gatekeeper

6.50 - 7.15 - Food, drinks and social time

7.15 - 7.35 - Workshop in groups to share tools you've used, discuss how, and as a meetup we'll collate a huge list of tools.

7.35 - 7.45 - Tools list wrap up.

8.00 - End

** These speakers are being finalised now, if you'd like to give a 15min talk on the tools you use for exploratory testing, please DM the group. **

As with all Ministry of Testing meetups, this meetup has a code of conduct.
