Here's the plan for the evening:

⭐️17:30- 18:00 networking ⭐️

⭐️18:00-18:45 Testing the untestable - patterns and use cases analysis - Piotr Stawirej ⭐️

During my career as a programmer, trainer and mentor, I encountered many situations where my colleagues or myself found code that was difficult to test. Some of these situations were repeated and some of them were not. In this presentation, I will show how an application can be simplified and made testable by analysing the cases encountered and the solutions used.

Before joining the presentation, knowledge of OOP, Onion/Hexagonal Architecture, Java (and JUnit) or a Java-like language and experience in writing unit, integration and end-to-end tests is recommended.

⭐️18:45 - 19:00 break ⭐️

⭐️19:00-20:00 The surprising second life of Java in testing - Anna Czyrko ⭐️

Pardon, can I use Java if I am not a developer? Sure you can, and today I will show you how!

I will tell you about the use of Java in test automation and prove that not only Java developers use it. As testers, our work isn't only just clicking as many might think. We also use programming languages!

I will analyze and compare the tools used in our everyday work that include Java and show you a real-life example of its implementation in automation.

⭐️20:00 - 21:00 networking: 🍕 pizza&beer 🍺

🤩 Come and join an evening full of Java inspirations! 🤩
