Errors usually occur long before anyone tests. Quality Storming makes visible where quality is lost in the process - before it's too late.
Wind and weather - the challenges of testing wind turbines
164 subsystems, national lightning protection rules and offshore turbines without access. Testing wind turbine software is harder than it looks.
Man vs. machine: Who judges more fairly?
AI systems have bias, but the real problem is that people adopt it without realizing it. What this means for the use of AI in companies.
Legal pitfalls in software contracts
Two missing sentences in a software contract can drive a company into bankruptcy. Why agile software projects end up as contracts for work.
Dynamic analysis for embedded systems
Measuring embedded code coverage without instrumentation: Why hardware tracing in system testing solves the observability that unit testing alone can't deliver.

From unit tests to exploratory testing, only some Java tools really count in practice. How Maven controls the whole test procedure reliably.
Code quality, metrics and mindset for students
Teaching testing in university before real projects put pressure on you: Why architecture trumps testability and ChatGPT disguises it.
More quality in requirements with AI
Vague requirements are the most expensive problem in testing. How AI really helps when determining, formulating and checking requirements.

If you only mention bugs in an interview as a tester, you're giving away your strongest card. How to use emotions, negotiate salary and build trust.
The ASQF quality network
Almost 30 years, over 1000 members, free conference tickets: What the ASQF still offers the German-speaking software quality community today.
Better collaboration with model-based testing
Model-based testing kills two birds with one stone: better requirements and ready-made test cases from one workshop.
Accessibility testing of PDFs
PDF accessibility doesn't just apply to websites: Why contracts, invoices and policies must now be accessible and what this means in technical terms.
Using the board game for test design
How do you create a board game that delivers real test cases? A team built it - and learned more about testing than expected.
Testing with Natural Intelligence
AI takes over testing? What it can't do: genuine curiosity, intuition and thinking outside the box. Why human tester thinking remains.
