The Testing landscape is changing forever, the traditional CoreIT approach to providing business value through testing is constantly being challenged. The drive towards embracing FluidIT through open innovation calls for a new models that can support the rapid adoption of DevOps practices stressing the need for accelerated communication, collaboration, integration, measurement and automation (build) as part of every organisation journey to become a true ‘Digital Enterprise’.
However, this raises the question.. what is our role as testers as part of TestOps?
Key Takeaways:
– Learn how to do ‘TestOps’ in the Cloud
– Discover the difference between ‘DevOps’ and ‘TestOps’
– Explore models that help support SAFe, DAD and LeSS
– Leverage patterns and recipes that can help you move away from ‘CoreIT to ‘FluidIT’

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
