We’re turning this into a 30 Days of TestBash activity! Hello! We survived TestBash Brighton 2024, it was a most amazing software testing conference! As a team, and behind the scenes, we are collecting ‘memories’ that we hope to archive in a useful way. Is there anything you’d like to share? - A podcast you host afterwards? - A blog post you end up writing? - Did you create any sketchnotes? - Did you share something on social? - Do you have a ‘testermonial’ to share? - something else? Please drop comments in the thread, or start a new post (with “testbash-brighton” as a tag). Thank you! ---

Loved being back in Brighton again and seeing soooooo many familiar faces. Really appreciated all the conversations and the wonderful people than came and joined us for our sessions. 🚀 🧑‍🚀 We managed to give away so much swag which was amazing, I didn’t want to take that back with me on the train. 😬 If you were the lucky ones to get some Postman “stuff”, I’d love to see that in the wild or chucked in the corner with all your other swag…it’s all good 😃 Thanks to @rosie and the whole MoT team / ambassadors for yet again, smashing it right out the park with this conference. See you all in 2025! ❤ ---
