For more than 17 years TestExpo™ has encouraged delegate participation in its engaging debates around the practice of software testing. TestExpo™ 2013 is no exception.

The theme for the event this Autumn will be 'Transforming Testing: Identifying Solutions That Work', and will highlight the real-life unique testing issues, industry level concerns and obstacles which prevent test teams from continuing on the path to becoming a more mature test function.

The event will be structured around a series of themes, with keynote presentations and round-table sessions where all participants can join in and discuss their challenges. Topics to be discussed and explored include Test Transformation, Agile, Mobile Testing, Performance Testing, Testing Budgets, Cloud and more. This year's event is set to provide delegates with the solutions, tools and knowledge to effectively transform their test function.

Sogeti is thrilled to confirm a distinguished line up of sponsors for this year's event. Hewlett-Packard return as a prominent sponsor, joining worldwide leader in software, services and solutions, Microsoft plus TRICENTIS® and product-development focused testing specialists Seapine Software as Gold level sponsors. At Bronze level sponsorship Sogeti is proud to announce that agreements are in place with Soflab Technology - Poland's principal IT system testing company - and Load and Performance Testing solution vendor Neotys. Performance Testing specialists, Capacitas also support the event at Bronze level.
