Call for Presentations

The theme for the 2024 conference is
“Testing of, with or by AI”
In the last few years, the impact of Artificial Intelligence on software development and testing processes and practices has grown exponentially. Since then, it seems like everyone has formed their opinion on AI on software testing, ranging from
“In five years, AI will have made all of us obsolete”
to
“AI is just another fad, and it’s not really helpful at all”
The truth, as always, is probably somewhere in the middle, and we would love to hear what you think.
Our theme opens up the opportunity to talk about AI from various angles:
- Testing of AI systems – Have you worked on testing AI systems such as LLMs, neural networks or chatbots? We would love to hear about your experiences. How did you determine what is ‘right’ and what is ‘wrong’?
- Testing with AI systems – Have you used AI systems to support your testing efforts? How did it help you? What have you learned about the benefits and the drawbacks of AI in your testing?
- Testing by AI systems – Have AI systems taken over (part of) your testing efforts completely? How did you get there? What lessons have learned along the way? And how did it make your life as a tester better or easier?
We are looking to build an exciting program around our central theme. More specifically, we are looking for:
- Presentations (40 minutes) about your testing methods, test techniques, new insights or test tools and experiences gained in your test projects.
- Presentations (40 minutes) on the research project you are working on. Even if your thesis or publication is not ready for publication yet, we invite you to share your findings!
- Lightning talks (15 minutes), these can be discussions on any topic – talks, comments, forecasts and predictions, anything goes, as long as it is related to the conference topic. If you want to demonstrate a new tool or technique you are working on and are looking for some honest feedback, this is the place to get it, too!
All presentations and test talks can make use of a beamer and audio assistance.
To submit your proposal, please use this Google Form.
We are looking forward to your submission!
