Sustainability
Sustainability in software development has seven dimensions and most know only one. What carbon footprint, use and green features mean.

Latest Episodes
Conversations with testers, developers, and coaches who work in the field.
My mentor in conversation
outsourced in 1978, paid according to test cases and errors found: Why this approach failed back then and which principles still apply today.
Liberating Structures
Meetings where everyone nods and nobody really thinks can be designed differently. Liberating Structures provides the concrete formats.
Model-based testing (MBT)
Model-based testing is considered complex and formal. Boxes, arrows and a flowchart are enough to uncover requirement gaps early on and generate test cases.
How do I survive a cloud migration?
Cloud migration sounds like technology but is largely a question of organization instead. Monoliths, DBAs and silos slow things down most.
Test Intelligence
Finding 80% of errors in 1% of the time: How test impact analysis and test gap analysis are fundamentally changing testing.
A critical look at BDD
BDD looks simple, but it's not. Why Gherkin without real team communication creates more effort than benefit, and how to do it right.
The new ISTQB CTFL 4.0
Two years of work, an international team, a completely revised basis: what has really changed in ISTQB Foundation Level 4.0.
Sociable testing
Why are hundreds of unit testers created, but the software still doesn't run? Because isolated tests alone do not prove a feature - and that is the problem.
Gamification in testing
Manual testing is no fun, and risk analyses usually end up unread in a drawer somewhere. Gamification solves both with concrete formats.
A testing pioneer in conversation
70.000 copies sold, but testing is still considered destructive. Why this image is wrong and what it really means to test software.
C++ Quality by Design
C++ is 45 years old and yet deeply rooted in autonomous driving, medical devices and AI libraries. What the Core Guidelines have to do with it.
When customers are colleagues
How do you test an app that drivers use while driving without distracting them? Test drives, surveys and slow rollouts on 20% of the fleet.
House of Agile Quality
Agile quality needs more than test automation: roles, approach and processes must fit together. The House of Agile Quality shows you where to start.
Shift Left
If you only check quality during testing, you've already lost. How unit tests, IDE plugins and contract testers make errors visible earlier.
Ensemble testing and ensemble programming
Four to six people, one keyboard, real code: Ensemble Testing brings testers and developers together where documentation and meetings fail.
Cypress
Cypress instead of Selenium: Why real browser testing is more stable, how component testing saves the test pyramid and where the tool's limits lie.
Testing audio AI
Testing audio AI without being able to look into the code: Why golden test sets, training data tracking and ChatGPT play a role in this.
