Atomic Talk Title: Open Source Contribution Ideas for Testers


The conference talk on “Open Source Contribution Ideas for Testers” aims to highlight the importance of testers actively participating in open-source projects and will present a comprehensive list of contribution ideas.

Currently, only 1% of engineers contribute to open-source projects, despite the fact that 99% of testers utilize open-source tools. This talk emphasizes the ease of contributing and encourages testers to join the 1% club. By actively participating in these projects, testers can demonstrate their skills, enhance their professional portfolio, and contribute to the open-source world.

By attending this conference talk, participants will gain valuable insights into the numerous opportunities available for testers to contribute to open-source projects. I will also share my personal strategies for getting involved and making a difference.

Talk Takeaways

  • Testers have a unique opportunity to showcase their skills and expertise by actively contributing to open-source projects.
  • Joining the 1% of engineers who contribute to open-source projects can be easily achieved by engaging in various activities such as bug reporting, documentation fixes, and feature requests.
  • Contributing to open-source projects not only enhances the tester’s professional portfolio but also helps improve the quality of open-source tools for everyone.
