This document discusses software testing and proposes considering it as value flow management. It summarizes the history of definitions of software testing and proposes alternatives to claims that testing is dead. These alternatives include considering testing as a science by adopting scientific methods and principles of falsifiability. The document also discusses treating the software lifecycle as a flow of value and considering context-driven principles. It proposes that any lifecycle can be improved by focusing on managing the flow of value and considering the project context.
Quality problems related to agile methods / scalability.Darío Macchi
In this presentation we will see some problems with agile practices of quality assurance.
Then we will focus on the particular problem of non-functional requirements.
Finally we will refer to the quality problems that arise when using agile methods in large projects.
Is assumed that these practices improve the quality of a software product.
We will see that in any case there are problems in implementation, especially when scaling agile projects and take them to big projects distributed environments.
The process of diagnosing product problems identified during design, manufacture or use brings many challenges. The presentation will discuss ways to alleviate these difficulties using a structured, troubleshooting-based approach, and being aware of some common errors and ways of dealing with them.
• How to analyze data for low frequency failures
• Using the information from RCA for improving both prevention and detection
• Understand why finding a product solution often isn’t enough

Deep learning is a subset of machine learning in which algorithms are used to model high-level abstractions in data. By using a deep learning algorithm, a computer can learn to recognize complex patterns in data, such as images or spoken language. Deep learning is used in a variety of applications, including image classification, natural language processing, and time series prediction.

1st in the "Rewriting the Rules of Perfomance Testing" series. Scott Barber and Dan Bartow discuss ways load and performance teams have "cheated" in the past due to constraints that are eliminated with new cloud-based approaches to testing.
Exploratory testing is an approach to testing that emphasizes the freedom and responsibility of testers to continually optimize the value of their work. It is the process of three mutually supportive activities done in parallel: learning, test design, and test execution. With skill and practice, exploratory testers typically uncover an order of magnitude more problems than when the same amount of effort is spent on procedurally scripted testing. All testers conduct exploratory testing in one way or another, but few know how to do it systematically to obtain the greatest benefits. Even fewer can articulate the process. James Bach looks at specific heuristics and techniques of exploratory testing that will help you get the most from this highly productive approach. James focuses on the skills and dynamics of exploratory testing, and how it can be combined with scripted approaches.

Generating a custom Ruby SDK for your web service or Rails API using Smithyg2nightmarescribd
Have you ever wanted a Ruby client API to communicate with your web service? Smithy is a protocol-agnostic language for defining services and SDKs. Smithy Ruby is an implementation of Smithy that generates a Ruby SDK using a Smithy model. In this talk, we will explore Smithy and Smithy Ruby to learn how to generate custom feature-rich SDKs that can communicate with any web service, such as a Rails JSON API.
Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

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.

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.
