Listened to a fabulous discussion on This Week in Testing | Ministry of Testing where @nat @lhughes @preetig @eamond15 and @simon_tomes shared their experiences on attending conferences and tips for testbash.

It’ll be my first time attending TestBash and I’m sure I won’t be the only one in that position. So for those who have been before and the regular attendees, what would be your tips for the newbees like me to get the best out of our experience? What should we be prepared for?

The things I’ll do for sure are:

  • prepare a plan in advance: what sessions are you going to attend
  • Verify if you should make a reservation for the workshops
  • take little breaks ( alone time)
  • wear comfortable shoes :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Thanks @mariem_safi . I think I’ll put a slot in my diary for preparing a plan ahead, thats a very consistent theme. Workshop reservations is a new one for me :thinking:. This might sound a silly question but would I need to bring a laptop/device for the workshops or is notepad enough?
Totally understand the breaks, and the comfortable shoes? :100: I have big feet, they need comfort :grin:
