Testival Meetup #42

We are looking for regular and lightning talks. Apply at zeljko.filipin at gmail.com.

🎤 Introduction (about 10 minutes total)

At the beginning of every meetup, we like to get to know each other a bit better. Don’t be shy and prepare to say a sentence or two about yourself.

💻 Regular talks (10-30 minutes each)

☝️ Vanja Žunić (Bornfight): The Evolving Idea of QA Fortress

Vanja Žunić, still a young and fresh, but amusingly enthusiastic guy interested in structured building, collaboration, processes, exploration, performance, accessibility, puzzles, mysteries and so on - currently working as a software tester, steel node of QA department at Bornfight.

✌️ Vienne Chan: Testing Thinking

Looking at society as a system, can we apply a tester's way of thinking to solve some of its problems? This talk will present a hyper-speculative model in which a socio-economic system can be "hacked".

Vienne Chan is an artist visiting from Duisburg (Germany), and is interested in how to transform the financial system. Currently she is in Zagreb to research socio-economic conditions as part of a project with Gallery Miroslav Kraljevic in 2019, and would like to meet others with similar mindsets to participate in this project.

🤟 Mladen Maravić (Repsly): Quality enforcement (QE), a QAs evil twin

What was it like to work for a company that puts quality first? Mladen will talk about his experience of working in a more rigorous development environment where Quality Enforcement was in power. What are the advantages of working in such an environment for developers, testers and business owners? Join and find out.

Mladen Maravić is a long-time software developer. Once upon a time he was also Chief QA Engineer, but has since decided that life is hard-enough without battling developers and management over irrelevant bugs that cause production crashes...

⚡️ Lightning talks (5 minutes each)
