Throwback Wednesday: Deborah Reid 99 Seconds at TestBash Brighton
03 Jun 2026
I believe this was TestBash Brighton 2016.
If I recall correctly Deborah Reid did a 99 second poem, I could be wrong.
In the back I recognise Emma Keaveny, Neil Taylor and Maaret Pyhäjärvi.
Long live 99 second talks!

I've been working in the software testing and quality engineering space since the year 2000 whilst also combining it with my love for education and community. It turns out quality, community and education go nicely hand in hand.

Omg what a blast from the past. I think I wrote something around you wouldn't exclude people for being ginger or being bald, so why exclude women or something.
