Agile Testing Days 2015 - PIMP MY SCRUM – DOCUMENTATION FUN FOR AGILE TEAMSAnis Ben Hamidene
Scrum with it’s few artefacts, roles and meetings is already fun. The documentation task for most developers and testers is still just boring. Because of this, documentation seldom serves as it’s intended purpose. It is rarely complete, up to date or clear enough to avoid misunderstandings. So you don’t trust documentation, do you? If you can get hold of the people who you know what the software is doing, you ask them instead.
Nowadays Behaviour driven development (BDD) makes documentation not only for developers more fun, but also serves as a trust building documentation. Further, it helps to clarify the intent of the story or requirement before implementation starts and validates it continuously after it is released. Sounds impossible?
In this track we make the BDD concept of a Living Documentation a reality. We share with you our experiences about the methods and tools which support the notion of BDD and provide practical guidance about which tools are best suited for your context.
We will be also happy to share with you the premiere of our open source suite testIT LivingDoc, a BDD solution for Atlassian Confluence and the successor of the popular but almost dead GreenPepper.
Code with Honor – on the importance and beauty of software programming (Oracl...Lucas Jellema
As programmers, our main goal is to make IT work. To translate functional specification into executable code. And sure, that is the least we can do. But we have more responsibility than this. We have to produce software that is robust and will reliably handle expected and unexpected cases. Software that is scalable and can handle expected and somewhat unexpected load gracefully. With minimal operating costs and in the greenest way possible. Software that is observable and manageable and that can be evolved with changing and new functional requirements and with changing technology. Software that will be legacy in the original, positive meaning of the word. That does not depend on the one big brain in our team or on the guy that has been around for three decades. Software that we know is good and can comfortably be modified in a controlled and productive way.
This session talks about what it takes to create our code with honor. It discusses automation at every level in the build, rollout and monitoring of infrastructure (as code), platform and application, using CI/CD pipelines and DevOps procedures and tool. The session talks about testing – before and during development as well as after each change anywhere in the system and for both functional and non-functional aspects. Test driven development, regression testing and smoke testing are among the concepts discussed. The term ‘clean code’ refers to code that is readable, testable and maintainable. Through code analysis and peer reviews and by performing refactoring we constantly refine our software to be collectively adaptable. The session demonstrates the concepts discussed with code samples in the context of cloud native programming. As software developers, we have an obligation to society, to our peers and to ourselves to not only write software that does the job, but to create code that is good. Ours is a great and meaningful line of work, especially if we raise our game professionally to code with honor.

Value Engineering is a good thing but it is usually confused with cost cutting which is not the same. Done well VE results in better function as well as reduced cost. This seems paradoxical until we try it.

Best Practice Maintenance and TroubleshootingYokogawa1
The desire is to achieve an accurate, reliable measurement with a reasonable electrode life expectancy while minimizing the frequency or complexity of required/ needed maintenance. When a quality pH sensor system is undamaged, cleaned, and properly calibrated, it will provide a measurement that is accurate and reliable.
Measurement results obtained from dirty or faulty electrodes can be anything from slow response to an entirely erroneous reading.
This webinar will provide a step-by-step plan for pH troubleshooting. We will focus on checking the complete loop (analyzer, cables, and sensor) and explaining the symptoms (e.g., not responding to changes).

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.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
