I will be speaking at IPC 2008

Aside from being a member of the advisory board of this years International PHP Conference, I will present one Full Day Workshop and one session at this year's edition of the International PHP Conference:

Quality Assurance in PHP Projects - In-Depth Best-Practises

Full Day Workshop

So you know PHPUnit, Selenium, phpUnderControl or CruiseControl and other tools to support testing efforts during your development process. But how does the puzzle of all those tools actually fit in your development process? During this Power Workshop Max Horvath and Wojciech Duda of studiVZ Ltd. will tell you about the everyday life at the Quality Assurance Business Unit. You will learn about best practices, which actually work and fit into an extremely fast moving iteration cycle at one of the biggest and fastest growing Social Networks in Europe. Talking about PHPUnit and Selenium, including tips on how to optimize using those tools, we will also show show you how you should integrate the testing process into your main development process, to be as lightweight and efficient as possible.

I will present this session together with my colleague Wojciech Duda.

Making Selenium Test Writing easier using a DSL

60 minutes Session

Implementing automated tests by using Seleniums API methods has several drawbacks. Selenium is great for what it does, providing a generic framework for testing a generic application. Using the Testing_SeleniumDSL framework, I will show you how to create your own Domain Specific Language (DSL), which would allow you to write tests in the language of your business rather than in Seleniums language.

I hope to see you in Mainz, Germany in late October!
