The Little Book of Testing Wisdom

The EuroSTAR Software Testing Conference proudly celebrates 25 years of software testing conferences this year and to commemorate this achievement, we’re compiling a limited edition pocketbook which will be gifted as a memento for conference attendees attending our jubilee celebration in Copenhagen.

To commemorate this historic milestone, we have asked 25 friends of EuroSTAR – leading experts in the field of software testing – to pen a short chapter for this software testing pocketbook entitled ‘The Little Book of Testing Wisdom’. Over the course of the last quarter century, this list of luminaries has contributed significantly to the field of software testing but also to the continued success of EuroSTAR – as a conference – and more broadly as a community committed to advancing the craft of software testing.

Amongst the contributors to this book, we have 10 winners of the European Testing Excellence Award and six former EuroSTAR Programme Chairs as well as previous Programme Committee members, Best Conference Paper winners and Best Tutorial winners from past EuroSTAR Conferences and regular contributors to the free bank of software testing resources available on Huddle.

The full list of contributors:

Michael Bolton, Hans Buwalda, Fiona Charles, Anne-Marie Charrett, Derk-Jan de Grood, Rikard Edgren, Isabel Evans, John Fodeh, Paul Gerrard, Shmuel Gershon, Dorothy Graham, Julian Harty, Anne-Mette Hass, Rob Lambert, James Lyndsay, Rik Marselis, Fran O’Hara, Declan O’Riordan, Stuart Reid, Alan Richardson, Huib Schoots, Ruud Teunissen, Geoff Thompson, Bob van de Burgt and Erik van Veenendaal.

EuroSTAR founder Bill Hetzel will pen a foreword to the book and a limited print run will be shipped to Copenhagen in time for the 25th Conference at the Bella Center next month. To get your copy of this Limited Edition pocketbook, join us in the main auditorium at the Bella Center on Wednesday at 4:15pm at EuroSTAR 2017 in Copenhagen for the official launch!
