QA 360: De la Mindset de Hacker la Standarde de Calitate

Doua perspective esentiale pentru orice profesionist in QA. Incepem cu Cracking the Code: o poveste personala despre tranzitia de la QA la Security. Afla cum experienta de tester este baza perfecta pentru a deveni Penetration Tester si cum arata drumul pana la a conduce o echipa de profil. Continuam cu Beyond Bug Hunting: provocarea de a defini "idealul" in calitate pentru 10+ proiecte simultan. Vom vedea cum se trece de la subiectivism ("mi se pare ca e bine") la un framework clar care ajuta echipele sa isi identifice singure directia de crestere.

Andrei Dobrin

QA Director @Zitec

Daca ma intrebai acum cativa ani ce vreau să fac, probabil ti-as fi zis ‘sa ma joc’. Asa am ajuns in QA - din dorinta de a strica jocuri si softuri intr-un mod organizat. Intre timp, am schimbat controller-ul de Playstation pe strategii de testare si management, dar am pastrat spiritul mai relaxat. Imi place sa colaborez cu oameni faini(who doesn’t?), sa testam limitele tehnologiei (si ale rabdarii AI-ului) si sa transformam bug-urile in lectii.

Beyond Bug Hunting: Cum definim idealul nostru in QA pe 10+ proiecte

Andrei Dobrin
Andrei Dobrin

Calitatea poate fi subiectiva, iar deciziile bazate doar pe perceptie pot fi inselatoare. In aceasta sesiune vom prezenta modul in care am construit un limbaj comun, dpvd calitate, pentru proiectele noastre. Plecand de la un set de criterii ideale pentru noi, am creat un mecanism prin care fiecare proiect isi poate identifica singur punctele slabe. Afla cum am trecut de la "mi se pare ca merge bine" la o vizibilitate clara asupra starii proiectului si cum ajutam colegii sa isi seteze singuri directia de crestere tehnica.

🕐 20:10-21:30

Networking & follow-up discussions

Continuam povestile despre testare la o pizza, bere si companie de calitate.

Agents & Empathy: Build Smarter Tools, Test Like Humans

What happens when you give your AI agent access to any tool it needs — and when you turn user empathy into a quality engine that never stops? At this meetup we explore two sides of the same coin: how to extend AI agent capabilities through Model Context Protocol (MCP), and how to combine authentic manual testing — where you truly feel the user's experience — with smart automation that turns discoveries into action. Whether you want to build your own MCP server or bring a culture of quality to your team, you'll leave with concrete ideas and tools you can apply starting Monday. Presentations: 🔧 Extend Your Agent's Toolbox — What Are MCPs and How to Build Your Own 🧪 Test Like a User. Automate the Rest.

Shift-Left Strategy & Testing Misconceptions

For this edition of Tabara de Testare, we are putting textbook theory aside to discuss the realities on the ground. We are addressing two essential topics that every QA team faces daily: the misconceptions that slow down our work and the eternal "Shift-Left" promise - something many companies preach, but few actually apply properly. We will discover how to dismantle the most common misconceptions about software testing and explore practical strategies to bring testing much earlier into the development process, with a focus on static testing. We believe that no one holds the absolute truth, so we look forward to having you join us for an evening of open technical discussions, experience sharing, and, of course, the traditional networking!
