Baltic testers invited to conference "Theory and Practice of Software Testing", 11th International Conference 'Discover the Tester in You' - July 6, 2010 in Ryga (Latvia). Call for papers announced: two types of presentations are planned – short (15 minutes of talk, 5 minutes for questions) and long (30 minutes of talk, 10 minutes for questions). The submission should include a meaningful abstract of your presentation (up to 3 pages), indication of presentation type (short or long), a short biography and full contact details. Language – English. For more info on topics look at is.lv website. I am interested in suggested topic: Embedded software testing challenges, tips and tricks: Testing embedded software. It would not be correct to present topic on project I no longer work with, so will try to make a longer post here later.

If you ever, like me, had question what to choose - ISTQB or ISEB, this article at sogeti should help you :)
