Talk Description

Whenever we do anything new, we make discoveries, and often those discoveries force us to change direction and rethink our goals. In a world which embraces uncertainty, and in which innovation means trying things out and iterating more often than analyzing and predicting, what's the role of a tester?

In a world of change, where a quick reaction to problems is often a better approach than a prediction of them, we look at how a tester's mindset and skills can still bring much-needed clarity, ensuring coherence in the experiments we perform and making sure that they're safe-to-fail.
