Atomic Talk Title: How to NOT waste time?

In this talk, I will shine a light on how many testers waste a considerable amount of time. Every day. Day in, day out…

I have seen testers waste a lot of time. In this short talk, I will help testers recognize how they waste. I’ll end by sharing tips on how to not waste your valuable time!

Do you recognize the feeling that you could have tested more, or you could have spent your time doing more valuable things? I do! This talk was inspired by my marvel and my frustration that we waste a lot of time on unimportant things in testing. I want to create insight into how testers often waste their valuable time. Organizations want to speed up their product delivery, and they should stay ahead of the competition. So not wasting time is essential and will help the team tremendously. It will also help to create respect and credibility from your colleagues. I’ll share my ideas on how we can reduce waste and spend our time on activities that add value. I guarantee that watching this video will certainly not be a waste of time!

  • Thought-provoking insights that will impact the way you think about testing.
  • How to NOT waste time by testing smarter.
  • Learn how you can make your work more valuable.
