What is the role of QA team members on Agile teams? Should they be full team members and take on non-testing tasks? Can it work well if they're "loaned out" from a central QA organization? Should they be there on Planning Day?
Or, should there be specialized QA team members, at all? Is it more responsible if everyone tests? Is automated testing more costly than it's worth?
What do you look for when recruiting for QA skills on an Agile team? And where are all those Agile testers, anyway?
This Friday, 11/1, we'll be hashing this out over beer and pub grub at the usual time and place. Be there and bring along your Agile QA buddies. |

PSU-TAO Cleanweb Hack (updated)
Roll back
| description |
If you haven't already signed up for the Hack tomorrow at PSU, we hope some details included here will entice you. To prepare our participants for a fun and productive day, below are details and resources for the Hack.
Goals
To generate ideas are innovative to solving environmental and sustainability, social equity issues through utilization of software and mobile apps. Donât forget to have some fun.
Idea Generation
To start, you should ask the following questions:
1) What issues you and your team would like to tackle? (ie. carbon emissions reduction by buildings or vehicles, solar potential identifier, change of personal habits, e-waste tracking, etc.)
2) What do other similar applications exist on the market? Sometimes, building on existing apps can resolve a more refined product.
3) What is the marketability? Is it scalable?
The best project ideas are one that you are passionate about, and have some components of competition and linkage to social media.
Finding Data
While you are brainstorming ideas, you should also consider data availability as well. It is not the end of the world if you donât have data sets or APIs to mock up a prototype. Simply build your own datasets, even if just a few that are enough for you to test out your product.
See the Cleanweb Hack resource guide for APIs, data sets, sample projects and project ideas. (http://tinyurl.com/m7a744e)
Judging Criteria
At the end of day, your prototype will be scored on these criteria:
1) Impact on resource and sustainability issues
2) Design and usability of prototype
3) Feasibility and marketability
4) Good use of datasets and APIs
Prizes
1st Place - $500
2nd Place - $250
Bragging right is priceless.
Our judges are looking forward to your innovations!
Winston Saunders, Director of Data Center Security Initiatives at Intel
Chris Harder, Division Manager at the Portland Development Commission (PDC)
Skip Newberry, President at the Technology Association of Oregon (TAO)
Questions? Ask us on Twitter (@cleanwebPDX), Facebook or via email [email protected]
There will be food, drink and good companies. Come out to have some fun!

###Beyond the confluence of Mobile, Social, Cloud and Analytics###
Few revolutionary technologies have created new value pools, displaced incumbents, changed lives, liquefied industries, and made a lasting economic impact. We are fortunate to be witnessing a perfect storm of Mobile, Social, Cloud and Analytic's creating this tectonic shift. In this session we will explore the rise of this connected ecosystem and look beyond into the world of Contextual computing, Wearables and the Internet of Things. |
