PNSQC Call for Papers

The Pacific Northwest Software Quality Conference is one of my favorite conferences. I think it usually runs about 200 people, so it's small enough to meet people. As a regional conference always in the same place (Portland, OR, USA), there's a continuity of attendees that allows some papers to be less introductory than in other conferences.

They tell me:

Once again we are closing in upon the deadline for submitting abstracts for the Pacific Northwest Software Quality Conference. This year is our 25th anniversary and our conference theme is "25 Years of Quality - Building for a Better Future." We would especially like to hear from people (like you) who have submitted papers in the past.

This year we have a new submission process revolving around the Conference Management Tool from Microsoft. You can submit via https://msrcmt.research.microsoft.com/PNSQC2007/Default.aspx

The deadline for submissions is March 31, 2007 for our conference on October 8-10.

Working your way out of the automated GUI testing tarpit
  1. Three ways of writing the same test
  2. A test should deduce its setup path
  3. Convert the suite one failure at a time
  4. You should be able to get to any page in one step
  5. Extract fast tests about single pages
  6. Link checking without clicking on links
  7. Workflow tests remain GUI tests

A roadmap for testing on an agile project: When consulting on testing in Agile projects, I like to call this plan "what I'm biased toward."

Tacit knowledge: Experts often have no theory of their work. They simply perform skillfully.

Process and personality: Every article on methodology implicitly begins "Let's talk about me."
