**Details**
Join us for networking, drinks and a good time catching up with fellow Power BI and Microsoft Fabric enthusiasts
**Agenda:**
5:30PM - 6:00PM Welcome and Networking
6:00PM - 7:00PM Speaker Session
**Topic:** From Bronze to Gold: A Practical Testing Strategy for Microsoft Fabric
**THE SPEAKER -** Mikhail Koptelov
**THE SESSION**
Testing in Microsoft Fabric requires different strategies depending on where your logic lives. In this talk, we explore how to apply unit and contract testing across the Fabric stack:
* Pipeline unit tests for reliable orchestration and data movement
* Python notebook testing using both notebook-first and package-first approaches
* SQL contract testing to ensure downstream dependencies remain stable
By the end, you’ll have a practical blueprint for building robust, testable Fabric workloads from Bronze to Gold.
**Pre-requisites**: Basic understanding of Fabric and python

Journal/ Craft Meet Up
My aim is to bring together a like-minded community to junk journal and craft alongside one another, in a low pressure environment.🧵🎨
While I deeply love analogue, hands-on creative practices — and recognise how personal they can be — they can also lead us to spending *too* much time alone. I think many of us can feel that sense of community and connection slowly slipping away.
I feel passionate about bringing creativity and community together. There is a real hunger for spaces where people can gather, make, and simply be — together.
I want to create a group where you can bring whatever you’re currently working on creatively. Whether that’s junk journalling or another craft practice, the focus is on coming together and creating collectively.
There is an open invitation to share your work if you feel called to, but absolutely no pressure — this is a gentle, supportive space first and foremost.
This space is shaped by the understanding of how powerful creativity can be when held in community and I hope for us to build one together.
Remember: you are welcome exactly as you are 🌱
just bring along whatever you're working on and some supplies!💞
I hope to see you & create something simple and beautiful🌸
Location: Melbourne Botanical Gardens, Near 'The Observatory.'
Please remember to change your availability on the RSVP - if you change your mind last minute, otherwise I won't know who to check for :)
