The TCL Tiger running around at the STand P Conference

On Wednesday the TCL tiger was sighted running around and making new friends. The tiger agreed to pose for a picture with a conference attendee/media person. While the tiger had all the fun, Matthew and Don asked attendees to take a brief survey around their testing needs in exchange for an entry into a drawing to win an 30gb iPOD. The winner of the iPOD is Susan Mast TSX Technologies

The Software Test and Performance Conference 2006

What is the STandP??:
From November 7-9, 2006 in Boston, MA There will be hundreds of other software developers, development managers, test/QA managers and senior test professionals at the Software Test & Performance Conference™ 2006!. With more than 60 classes and full day tutorials cover software test/QA and performance issues across the entire application life cycle, making this event appeal to a higher level and more diverse group of development and test/QA professionals than traditional training programs for test-team members.Representing TCL is Matt Kovar and yours truly.

Today I attended Assessing Your Test Team Effectiveness, Efficiency and More presented By Rex Black. In this one-day tutorial methods on how to judge the test teams performance as well as presenting his ideas around test processes and metrics. Rex's lecture primarily used to present these methods and make an attempt to stimulate discussion. It was very interesting. Matt and I will be having Lunch with Rex tomorrow.
I will have more details later tomorrow including a photo of the famous TCL Tiger!!
