What QA will look like in the future
Here is the final blog in a series featuring talks from our recent Geek 23 conference. In this video, Rafaela Azevedo presents a lightning talk on the subject of, What QA will look like in the future.
In this 5-minute talk, Rafaela explains about the future of QA (Quality Assurance) and discusses the evolution of the role in response to emerging trends. The QA role has come a long way from its traditional focus on manual testing and bug detection. As technology advances, QA professionals are adapting to new demands and becoming integral contributors to the software development process.
The future of this role will be marked by AI tests, tests in the cloud, Web3 tests, alerting and monitoring and strong soft skills. By embracing these trends and developing the necessary skills, QA professionals will be well-equipped to drive quality and innovation in the ever-changing software development industry.
Geek 23 was a specific event for, and led by, our Equal Experts community. Speakers gave talks on a range of topics including service design, developer experience, operability, leadership, distributed systems, testing, large language models, DevOps, mob programming and microservices.
Fifth in a series featuring talks from our recent Geek 23 conference is Todd Anderson, Principal Consultant and Equal Experts, presenting the first lightning talk of the day on the subject of Trust.
Have you ever thought about how important trust is within your team? What effect does trusting or not trusting have in your work? We all have stories about where things didn’t go well because of a lack of trust.
But if it’s so important, then why do we never talk about it? View Todd Anderson’s lightning talk on the topic of trust and why we need to promote it with our customers and teams.

Third in a series featuring talks from our recent Geek 23 conference is Software Engineer, Flávio Sousa, presenting, Mobbing – A programmer’s survival guide.
Mobbing, or mob programming, is a software development approach where the team is contributing to the same task at the same time. This means no PRs – everyone’s work is integrated moment to moment – and once the task is done, it gets pushed straight to master.
In this talk, Flávio shares his experience of mob programming during a five month engagement last year. He’ll give an honest account from a non-advocate’s point of view, and share the good and the bad. By the end of the talk, you’ll have an idea of how a seemingly time-wasting approach can yield pretty good results.
