Testing Conferences

This is a simple list of software testing conferences and workshops published collaboratively with the testing community.

Quick Start

1. Clone or dowanload the project and cd project dir

git clone [e-mail]:TestingConferences/testingconferences.github.io.git cd testingconferences.github.io

2. Run

Option 1: use docker-compose

docker-compose up

Option 2: or just use docker

docker run --volume="$PWD:/srv/jekyll" -p4000:4000 -it jekyll/jekyll:3.8.0 sh -c "bundle install && jekyll server"

Note: If it is very slow to download jekyll image, click here to download the tar package and load it by docker load

docker load jekyll_3_8.tar

3. open browser to http://localhost:4000
   That's all!

Contributing Guidelines

The list of events is driven by files in the _data folder - if you have an update for those things, just change the current.yml and past.yml files and send a PR.

• The order of the events listed in current.yml and past.yml dictates the order displayed, please make sure to properly insert events.
• If possible, spell out the conference name and add the abbreviation. Otherwise just use the abbreviation:
  • Example: Workshop on Performance and Reliability (WOPR)
• Include the year
  • Sometimes workshops use a version instead of a year
    • Example: Workshop on Performance and Reliability (WOPR) 24
• Don't include the @ symbol for the twitter handle. If there is no twitter option, leave it blank
• Optionally include a status such as:
  • CFP is open / closed (CFP == Call for Proposal)
  • CFP is closed
  • Early Bird Registration is open
  • Registration is open / closed
  • Feel free to put in dates about when things expire
• Optionally include a link to a conference video playlist. This will only appear for past conferences and can be added directly to the past.yml file.
  • These should be videos from the conference presentations or talks. No marketing videos please.

Eligible Conferences and Workshops

Focus is a goal of this project and as a result, only conferences, un-conferences and workshops that are specifically for software testing are listed. That means that if a conference covers software testing, but is not specifically for testers, then it is left out.

A good heuristic for whether a conference should be included is if its name includes Test(ing) or Quality and/or how it describes itself.
