I’m pondering whether some mini-workshops for testers are feasible for #BrummieTesterMeetup‘s next year.
I had the following in mind. I reckon about 90 mins for each…
- Xmind
- Jmeter
- Soapui
- Fiddler
- Dev tools
- Webdriver
- Jenkins
- Ruby
- Python
- SQL
What do you the testing community think about these as topics? Anyone want to volunteer to come along to Birmingham and deliver one of them?
Update:
Following some further discussions, we have the following lineup more or less confirmed for next year:
| Month | Workshop | Confirmed |
|---|---|---|
| January | JMeter assisted testing - Simon Knight | Yes |
| February | Fiddler assisted testing - Simon Knight | Yes |
| March | Special Guest TBC | in progress... |
| April | SQL for Testers - Ranjit Shringapure | Yes |
| May | testing mobile devices using simulators - Stephen Janaway | in progress... |
| June | Webdriver assisted testing - Richard Bradshaw | Yes |
| July | summer break | N/A |
| August | summer break | N/A |
| September | browser development tool assisted testing - Richard Bradshaw | Yes |
| October | testing for security - Dan Billing | Yes |
| November | testing real mobile devices - Stephen Janaway | in progress... |
| December | Xmas break | N/A |
Many thanks to Ranjit, Stephen, Richard and Dan. Watch out for a special guest announcement soon!
Cheers,
Simon
I’d love to learn about all of these, some more than others for sure. Ruby, python and jmeter 😀
The best way to learn, is to teach – some say… 😉
How about some mobile ones – things like ‘using simulators’, ‘using browser dev tools’, ‘using real devices’, etc?
Depending on timing, etc then I may be able to help out.
Sounds great!
The list was spur of the moment pretty much, so certainly isn’t definitive. I realised just after posting that ZAProxy would be a good addition too, for example.
I’ll be in touch to line something up anyway.
