What is going on in testing communities?
Every week, we are going to collect vigorous discussions from different software testing communities. Believe us or not, the full range of emotions is here: joy, fear, anger, hesitation and persuasion, condemnation and shame, endorsement and support, but the most important – a great deal of curiosity!
From now on, you don’t need to subscribe to dozens of groups and channels – everything the most important will be on our blog. Follow the Software Testing Talks Facebook group and r/softwaretestingtalks Reddit community to get our weekly discussions lists directly to your feed.
