MoT Meetups: March 2025

Have a browse of our upcoming community-led meetups

Risk, agility, precision, and inclusion—testing isn’t just about catching issues; it’s about reshaping how we build. From risk strategy in Newcastle to AI-powered Agile in Cincinnati, from London’s buzzing networking scene to deep-diving into accessibility in Gloucestershire, there’s a meetup for all testers and quality engineers.

Which challenge will you tackle next?


We’re all meeting in Brighton this October! 🌊

Newcastle Meetup 🇬🇧
Date: Monday, 10 March 2025

Risk is everywhere—most teams just don’t see it until it’s too late. How do you plan for the things you don’t know are coming, and does your strategy actually hold up under pressure? Maybe the real risk isn’t in the backlog—it’s in assuming your team actually knows what could go wrong. Gather in Newcastle, break things in a safe space, and leave with a sharper strategy (and hopefully, fewer production fires).

Ghana meetup (Accra) 🇬🇭
Date: Saturday, 15 March 2025

Ministry of Testing Ghana kicks off “The Truth About Testing” on March 15, 2025—an online event for all tech enthusiasts. If testing ensures quality, why is it often sidelined? Maybe it’s time to rethink. If you've ever trusted “bug-free” code and regretted it, this is your chance to set things right!

Cincinnati Meetup 🇺🇸
Date: Thursday, 27 March 2025

An Agile testing workshop on March 27, 2025, dives into test automation, continuous testing, and AI-assisted planning. If Agile moves fast, why is testing often a bottleneck? Learn how to integrate AI into your workflow and make quality assurance as agile as your development cycle.
 

London Meetup 🇬🇧
Date: Thursday, 3 April 2025

London MoT 2.0 kicks off on April 3, 2025, with more games, giveaways, and networking! If testing is about precision, why do so many rely on luck to grab a spot? Secure your place or join the waitlist—because the best bugs aren’t the only thing worth catching.

Gloucestershire Meetup 🇬🇧
Date: Thursday, 3 April 2025

An evening of accessibility testing insights awaits on April 3, 2025, in Gloucestershire! If software is built for everyone, why is accessibility still an afterthought? Learn from experts, refine your toolkit, and ensure your testing doesn’t leave users behind—because exclusion is the worst kind of bug.
