Call for papers

The 23rd of March 2009, we hope to present: Free Test - Conference on Free Testing Tools
In this rapidly changing world, testing as a profession is becoming more and more recognized. At the same time, testers experience an increasing pressure when it comes to time and resources. One way to alleviate this pressure, is by incorporating tools in the testing activities. The interest in Open Source and/or Free testing tools is therefore growing fast.

Looking for the right tools and evaluating their usability in the organization is a time consuming effort This conference aims at people in this situation: it gives them an opportunity to learn more about products, experiences, and establish a network of other people with the same interests. Free Test will offer presentations about free testing tools and experiences with these. There will also be product stand facilities, where Free Testing Tools can be demonstrated.

Within this context, we need people willing to participate with a presentation within this theme.
