  1. Navigating Modern Software Testing: A Quest for Quality, Collaboration, and Value In the ever-evolving landscape of software development, the role of software testers has been a subject of debate for over two decades. The perception that testing is tedious, slow, and expensive has fueled discussions on whether automation, AI, and DevOps can render testers obsolete. However, in this interactive session, we debunk these myths and delve into the crucial relationship between developers, testers, and the pursuit of quality software. The speaker, with over 20 years of experience in the IT industry, challenges the notion that testing is merely a mundane task. Instead, the presentation focuses on how testing, when approached collaboratively, can enhance the creative process of software development. The session emphasizes that testing is not about slowing down delivery but about speeding it up by making developers aware of the modern testing landscape. Acknowledging the shift towards automated processes in Agile and DevOps methodologies, the talk explores the importance of maintaining a balance. While automation plays a pivotal role, the human touch in testing remains irreplaceable. Through real-life examples, the speaker shares insights on successful collaboration
