This event will bring together leaders from the city’s tech firms and departments to network, catch-up, ask questions, share problems and get advice from likeminded people experiencing many of the same issues.
In addition, we're delighted to be able to introduce you to the representatives making up Sheffield Digital's new Members Board. They will be joining us to share the progress we made during our first meeting and hear your ideas and wishes for the next phase of Sheffield Digital.
To facilitate this we've picked a venue with lots of space to socialise and a delicious buffet menu, as well as a private bar and space.

Hello! Welcome to the Sheffield Chapter of R-Ladies. We are hosting our first meet up on the 23rd of October to introduce ourselves, talk a bit about the R-Ladies goal and what we'll be doing in this chapter. We will finish with an autumnal Tidy Tuesday activity together so bring your laptops if possible but we can also share.
After the session which we've planned to take an hour, we'll move on to a more relaxed setting at the University Arms where we can just take some time to get to know each other!
In the Hicks Building, we'll be in Lecture Theatre 11. See you then! :) -
Hi all!
So this time we have the amazing Ash Winter joining us for his Big Testability Quiz, I shall defer to him to explain:
'I'm Ash Winter, a tester and international speaker on testing and testability. Along with a number of other community minded souls, I am one of the co-organisers of the Leeds Testing Atelier. I am also co-author of the Team Guide to Software Testability. Better testability is one of the keys to unlocking a whole team testing mindset and helping testers get out of the daily pain of hard to test systems. This is my mission!
I have a theory. Its that testers struggle on with hard to test systems, doing their best to deliver in trying circumstances. Maybe we think things can't be changed, or maybe we don't know what to change. Or we can't get any buy in for those changes. I also want to know if people have super testable systems but haven't shared their success quite yet. Time for a quiz.I want to do a few things:* Use the Ten P's of Testability and gather... -
