The document discusses standards for assessment including Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI) and Question and Test Interoperability (QTI). LTI allows for integration of learning modules between systems, while QTI focuses on exchanging item and test data between platforms. Both standards aim to prevent vendor lock-in and facilitate system integration, but have limitations like low compliance requirements for QTI and lack of context sharing for LTI. The presentation concludes that while useful, the standards require improvements and continued development to fully achieve their goals.

This document provides an overview of DevOps principles and practices. It discusses the rise of DevOps as a movement to improve collaboration between development and operations teams. Common DevOps misconceptions are addressed. The CALMS framework of culture, automation, lean, measurement, and sharing is introduced as guiding principles. A roadmap for DevOps adoption is presented, along with take-home activities. The document aims to educate about DevOps in 3 sentences or less.
This talk was given in GeoSTQB webinar on June 15, 2020. Several strengthening trends are discussed. Testing careers are evolving – there are entries into testing and out of testing. Testing is becoming a role for everyone. ISTQB, as the world’s largest testing association, provides guidance into different testing activities, supporting testing careers. Another influential aspect is the on-march of agile teams, where testing is a whole team responsibility. Then there is test automation - that is an ever-increasing domain within testing. Test automation is not taking tester jobs away, but it is transforming them, giving tools for testing. Then there is DevOps – placing testing in the middle of a largely automated delivery pipeline. There is a place for manual testing, too, but test automation has a big meaning here. Finally, Artificial Intelligence is transforming all IT task, including testing. Automation of activities can now or soon be done in a scale that wasn’t possible earlier. Do we have reason to fear for our jobs? No – AI is best placed as yet another aid for the increasing demand of good quality in software, that is more complex than ever. Soon, we couldn’t cope without AI.

Luiz Fernando Testa Contador - Aplicando DevOps em grandes corporaçõesAgile Trends
DevOps is a culture and practice that aims to unify software development and IT operations. While DevOps provides benefits for startups through increased agility, implementing DevOps in large corporations faces challenges due to rigid structures. To adopt DevOps, enterprises must change their culture and team structures, sharing technical skills across departments and investing in new architectures like microservices and containers. Enterprises should start small with a minimum viable product approach, focusing first on continuous integration and delivery before continuous deployment. Maturity evaluations can identify areas for improvement and guide a roadmap for DevOps transformation.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

Switch to Tom
Standards tend to be open nowadys, but they can be proprietary... Such as blu-ray. And, there are often competing standards... Video had to fend off betamax and blu-ray beat HD-DVD.
So, standards can be open or proprietary, they can compete with other standards... So what really makes a good standard?
Well, usage of course. The more people using the standard, the more useful it is.
In Computing, the purpose of standards is to create interoperability between components, systems and applications – be they from different vendors, organisations or teams. Interoperability has clear technological advantages, but also major economic benefits as it can reduce software development cost, acquisition cost, operating cost, as well as support and maintenance cost.
The 12th of August 1981 was the day IBM released the first IBM PC… They opened the standard allowing anyone to make similar PCs
This catapulted, what became known simply as the PC, to market domination – and IBM didn’t do badly out of it too… they’re the worlds largest consulting and services company in the world; or the third biggest software company… in fact they’re outright one of the largest companies in the world.
They dominate because of a market they opened using standards… software…
The companies trying to compete by staying proprietary fell by the wayside… Commodore, Atari, Acorn…
Well, all except Apple who staunchly bucked the trend from their creation in 1984 until 2006 when even they switched to a IBM PC derived intel architecture…
The disaggregation of hardware and software resulted in phenomenal growth…
The software and related services sector’s real contribution to U.S. GDP exceeded $267 billion in 2011.
Which was an annual growth rate of 14% compared to 2% for all industries combined
The chart shows the Gross Value add of software & services within the UK which hit over 30 billion in 2012
But, I’m sure we already know the IT industry as a whole is very successful, but, will the assessment IT industry follow in the footsteps of the wider industry to achieve similar growth?
Will we head towards disaggregation of platform and content?
Separating the content and authoring platforms is a step that parallels the wider IT industry’s step in the early 80s.
This step allows companies to focus on areas where they add value and really make a difference without having to incur the costs of developing every part of an end to end solution. And if you happen to add value at every stage then there are still cases where someone else offers a ‘critical feature’… it’s a very sad day when your whole platform is disregarded simply because of one missing feature… especially when you could improve the service elsewhere.
Compliance to standards is just beginning to become popular, the industry remains fairly vertical, but there is a slow, often project by project adoption beginning to happen.
But there is a reluctance to opening up and particularly to changing the revenue model – For example, we had a recent project where Open Source and Standards were must have requirements. The tech leaders in the organisation clearly saw the value of interoperability, but… once the legal & business department got involved the first question was “how do we lock this down and protect the IP”
This slow adoption will ramp up very quickly when we move to the cloud… the elastic nature and lower costs of an infrastructure like Amazon AWS lend themselves exceedingly well to large scale assessment. Purely based on compute costs, we have been able to simulate 100,000 test takers for less than $600… that’s less than one cent per user… and it included the cost of simulating the user as well!
Switch to Mark
Switch to Tom – import a QTI package...
Compliance bar is set rather low... QTI requires self certication, and does not require much of the standard to be implemented, in fact, you can get away with only 3 of the 21 specified interactions.
This means that consumers of the standard need to be aware that platform they are utilising may or may not support a business critical feature.
Even the very same feature may be different between vendors... For example, TAO’s own associate interaction is a ‘click and drop’. ie click once to select and then again to drop... Rather than the traditional drag and drop used by some other vendors. In fact all of our ‘drag and drops’ are actually ‘click and drops’ because, importantly, they are more accessible – requiring less motor skills. But, also because touch screen platorms use swipe gestures for other features.
But, of course, this interpretation begs the question of whether an item can still be considered the same from a psychometric perspective.
So… QTI and LTI are a tool… not a magic bullet - but as far as interoperability is concerned, they are the best tools we have.
Use them – they will reduce costs of interoperability and ensure you are not ‘locked in’
Improve them by contacting ims members such as ourselves and making feature requests. Or… of course… contact ims themselves!
Build upon them… prepare guidelines of what features must be implemented and how your psychometric requirements must be met. Then share that and try to get consensus.
