Session - The recall, becoming technical and averting disaster

Jun 21 11-11:50 AM(EDT)

Testing modern day software is much more than testing the GUI. It is almost impossible now to test most products adequately just from black box testing. The story shared is of a tester seeing this gap in a product's testing and fill it by getting under the hood and finding ways to test most critical and unreachable areas of the product, which if left untested could have caused severe damage to the product and the company.
Lessons learned are to:
1. become technical and understand your product's architecture and basic familiarity with the code base
2. Increase your testing acumen by finding new testing techniques to test the AUT across the complete technology stack
3. Find out and focus on generating business value. Find out what's most important and start from there.
