Open Space format

• Open space is a fascinating session format there audience suggests and votes for the topics to be discussed. Then the session agenda is formed and audience moves on to talk about those topics in the time-boxed 20 minutes slots. Anyone can speak in those sessions, both seminar speakers and delegates. Sessions take a relaxed form of circle of chairs, so there is no stage and no primary speaker.

5

Open Space Preparation

• Think about the topics you would like to hear about or discuss. It could be anything:

– maybe you want to talk about test data challenges in test environments?

– Maybe you want additional arguments for testing to convince your boss or steering group?

– Maybe you want to discuss about the next big thing in testing, whatever it might be?
