Weekend Testing – Test, Learn & Contribute

Before several months when I heard about Weekend Testing I thought what an amazing initiation took by Ajay Balamurgadas, Manoj M V, Parimala Shankariaha, Sharath Byregowda with a great inspiration from Pradeep Soundararajan. My apologies that it has been late for me to write a blog post about WT (From now on, I will refer Weekend Testing as WT in my upcoming posts about WT).


What hit my mind when I heard about this idea?

I thought how could no one think about this before? Because, they were not bothered about bringing a change in the community or May be there are numerous reasons. But what matters is that finally it was initiated by passionate testers from Bangalore.


What do they do in WT?

You might be having this question in your mind. Instead of me elaborating on the answer to this question I would like you to visit http://www.weekendtesting.com/ to find out much more.


Recently, Ajay Balamurugadas gave an paper presentation in STC 2009 & there were amazing comments given by Michael Bolton. Also, James Bach blogged about WT in his blog. I heard from Pradeep Soundararajan that Ajay gave a awesome presentation. I was happy to see some kind of cool initiation that would account for bringing the change in the community.



WT is growing each and every second. Every weekend there are new testers coming in and testing various products depending on the mission given to them. If you are not still participating in WT then I think you are missing a great opportunity.


Registration and other details you can find it out at WT official website http://www.weekendtesting.com/ or you can contact the founders of WT.


Thanks for reading this post & have a nice time.
