Talk Description
In 2006 Mitchell and Webb starred in a long-running TV campaign to persuade viewers about the differences between Macs and PCs. In 2015 Goble and Hare-Winton will re-run the battle in the field of mobile testing – this time it's iOS versus Android.

I am a Senior Automation Engineer at the Guardian. I worked originally as a manual tester, before moving into Automation and more general Development across the media, marketing and finance industries, and am a regular contributor to the Guardian developer blog.
