Problem Solving for Testers: Using Visual Testing
NEW

The reality is that technology is complex and ever-changing. And we testers are challenged with complicated problems that need elegant solutions. Andy Glover gives a hands-on presentation that explores a new way of looking at testing problems and ideas for solving them. Andy demonstrates how thinking with pictures can help you discover and develop novel approaches to solve problems in unexpected ways and dramatically improve your ability to share insights with others. He shows you how to clarify a problem or sell an idea by visually breaking it down using visualization tools such as mind maps and workflows. Join Andy to practice powerful but simple techniques you can use to visually communicate complex messages. Although we are all naturally creative, it sometimes takes practice and effort to develop these skills. However, you don’t need to know how to draw to attend this tutorial and get your creative juices flowing.
