GTAC 2014 Wrap-up
Thursday, December 4, 2014
by Anthony Vallone on behalf of the GTAC Committee
On October 28th and 29th,
GTAC 2014
, the eighth GTAC (Google Test Automation Conference), was held at the beautiful
Google Kirkland office
. The conference was completely packed with presenters and attendees from all over the world (
Argentina, Australia, Canada, China, many European countries, India, Israel, Korea, New Zealand, Puerto Rico, Russia, Taiwan, and many US states
), bringing with them a huge diversity of experiences.
Speakers from numerous companies and universities (
Adobe, American Express, Comcast, Dropbox, Facebook, FINRA, Google, HP, Medidata Solutions, Mozilla, Netflix, Orange, and University of Waterloo
) spoke on a variety of interesting and cutting edge test automation topics.
All of the
slides and video recordings
are now available on the GTAC site. Photos will be available soon as well.
This was our most popular GTAC to date, with over 1,500 applicants and almost 200 of those for speaking. About 250 people filled our venue to capacity, and the live stream had a peak of about 400 concurrent viewers with 4,700 playbacks during the event. And, there was plenty of interesting
Twitter
and
Google+
activity during the event.
Our goal in hosting GTAC is to make the conference highly relevant and useful for, not only attendees, but the larger test engineering community as a whole. Our post-conference survey shows that we are close to achieving that goal:
If you have any suggestions on how we can improve, please comment on this post.
Thank you to all the
speakers
, attendees, and online viewers who made this a special event once again. To receive announcements about the next GTAC, subscribe to the
