DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by AgilePDX\, Agile Open Northwest\, TAO QA &amp\; 
 Dev Forums\, PNSQC: &#13\;\n&#13\;\n&quot\;Agile Testing: How do WE Make
  it Work?&quot\;&#13\;\n &#13\;\nAs our organizations move toward &quot\
 ;Agile” for developing software\, we all face the challenge of understan
 ding how to adapt our former roles and ways of working to new work roles
  and processes.&#13\;\nHow do we ensure the continued value of testing?&
 #13\;\n &#13\;\nJoin us in Open Space to share your questions\, challeng
 es\, strategies\, success stories\, and how you've overcome stumbling bl
 ocks.&#13\;\n &#13\;\nIn small groups\, we’ll discuss topics such as:&#1
 3\;\n&#13\;\n· How is Agile testing different from how we’ve always done
  it?&#13\;\n· How do we know what to test?&#13\;\n· How do we know what 
 not to test?&#13\;\n· On Agile teams\, when does testing happen and whos
 e job is it?&#13\;\n· What is Exploratory Testing and why should we care
 ?&#13\;\n· How do regression tests work?&#13\;\n· How does testing impro
 ve my design? Should it?&#13\;\n· How do we ensure it is cost effective?
 &#13\;\n· What do people mean when they say\, &quot\;no defects”?&#13\;\
 n· Does Agile change how we test or does it just raise the existing issu
 es?&#13\;\n&#13\;\nBring the topics you feel passion for and add them to
  the list!&#13\;\n&#13\;\nEach self-organizing discussion group will cre
 ate a document or other record of their discussion\, ideas\, questions\,
  and insights. We’ll share everyone’s experiences at the end of the day.
  &#13\;\n&#13\;\nWho should attend?&#13\;\n&#13\;\n· Testers facing an A
 gile adoption/People new to the testing role/Testers eager to jump in&#1
 3\;\n· Devs who want to get serious about defect-free code&#13\;\n· CTOs
  and Managers of Test/Validation\, Dev\, Application Delivery&#13\;\n· A
 cademics preparing new software/IT professionals for the real world&#13\
 ;\n &#13\;\n Cost to attend:  $75 per person (Register early. We expect 
 to sell out.)\n\nTags: agile\, unconference\, qa\, software\, open space
