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.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

Social and Biodiversity Impact Assessment (SBIA) Stage 2: ‘Without Project’ analysis & Projection
1. SBIA Stage 2: ‘Without Project’ analysis & Projection Step 1: Building the Problem Flow Diagram Tuyeni H Mwampamba
2. Recap on where we are: SBIA Stage 1: Step 1: Discussed and defined the Project Scope (the area of influence of the Project) Step 2: Discussed the importance of developing a Project Vision: Relatively broad (captures a wide range of potential project activities) Inspirational (outlines desired changes in the current state of project objective) Short (<30 words) & easy to remember Obj: Setting up the framework for stakeholder involvement, project ownership, and an unified agreement of what the project is about
3. Recap: continued Step 3: Identification and Prioritisation of social Focal Issues Created a “shopping list” of social issues that are of concern for project success Fused & merged those that are similar Arranged them in order of priority Selected the Priority Focal Issues that the Project must address Process should be transparent, participatory and easily understood Obj: To ensure that the project is first addressing those issues that pose the largest threat to project success, or which would have extensive repercussion if they were NOT addressed
4. Next Step: Problem Flow Diagram Step 4: Problem flow diagram for each priority focal issue Obj 1: To develop a thorough and unified understanding of the focal issues Identify direct and indirect factors contributing to existence of the focal issue (as a problem) Obj 2: To identify strategic points of entry for the project to have the most impact on changing the focal issue to desired status
5. Criteria for a good PFD: Visually illustrates a workable understanding of the focal issue in the project area Shows assumed relationships between factors Shows major direct threats and indirect threats (and opportunities) Presents only relevant factors Based on sound data or good understanding of the project area Results from a team effort
6. It’s a Diagram: Direct causal Factors Indirect causal Factors Priority focal issue 1 Priority focal issue 2
7.
8. Criteria 2 & 3: 2. Shows assumed relationships and linkages between factors 3. Shows major direct and indirect threats (problems) and underlying factors
10. 5. Is based on sound data & info Experts should be included Includes traditional ecological knowledge Includes the community experience of a focal issue (cultural understanding)
11. 6. Results from Team effort Conducted in a stakeholder workshop setting Ensures that each SH understands the process and contributes
12. CCB Standards addressed: An accurate description of the condition at the start of the project; Set you up for identifying stakeholder groups (Criterion G1.5); Sets you up for documenting a “defensible and well-documented” ‘without project’ reference scenario (Criterion G2.)
