The Women entrepreneurship leads to the creation of capital as well led to the generation of many social benefits. However, entrepreneurship is not so popular and common in the developing nations like India.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

she employs the services of one paid and
one unpaid laborers in their businesses.

significance of the hypothesized predictors against
quantitative measures of extent revealed that:
1. Women entrepreneurs generally possessed high
personal entrepreneurial characteristics.
27. 2. In the push factors studied, household size solely
predicted the passion for business; combined
contribution of income, household size and civil status
predicted the capital investment; combined contribution
of income, household size and civil status predicted the
size of manpower employed in their business.
28. Among the pull factors studied, access to credit predicted
both the passion for business and size of manpower
employed in their business.
4. In the personal and family related factors studied,
education predicted the capital investment; consent of

30. RECOMMENDATIONS
1. The positive effect of elementary and secondary education
to entrepreneurial participation of women (as measured by
starting capital of women entrepreneurs) denotes the
importance of female education. It is highly recommended
therefore that curriculum for both elementary and secondary
education be enhanced.
31. For those whose with entrepreneurial
strategies to prepare not only women but
men, youth and children for entrepreneurial
endeavors even without finishing their
college education.
2.
32. 3. The number of manpower employed in the business being
predicted by family income demonstrates that the more
access women have on more resources, the more
progressive her entrepreneurial activities will be. It is
thus recommended that existence of support from
Government and NGO’s and Community Programs be
widely made known and more available to women
entrepreneurs.
33. 4. For women to be more active partners of men in
community development efforts, Gender and
Development programs should be integrated in the
curriculum as early as the pre-school levels of
education to the high school level not only to become
a gender-fair society but to become a well developed
progressive country.
