Hi Lee, Can I share your photos with my company? I think House of Test was hoping to use the photos of me for our company’s social media. Cheers, Nicola ---

I did pop my notes from the conference day onto GitHub, although I am a light note taker and use them as triggers rather than a comprehensive tome…feel free to download them if they are useful though… [https://github.com/realinkyfreak/TestBash2019](https://github.com/realinkyfreak/TestBash2019) ---

I’m blogging my reflections from TestBash Brighton. The first is about defining testing for others and how I believe we answer a different question. The second is about how the community helped me to be brave and includes the lyrics from ‘We will test you’ I ‘sang’ at the end of my Essentials talk. > **[Reflections from TestBash Brighton - Testing is?](https://www.thebigtesttheory.com/blog/2019/4/8/reflections-from-testbash-brighton-testing-is)** > > For my talk at TestBash Brighton Essentials (see ref below for slides and more) one of the things I covered was what I believe testing is.
