Google Test Automation Conference in Seattle

[Google Seattle/Kirkland Events Team]

Google will be hosting the Test Automation conference in Seattle this
year in late October and you are invited to apply for attendance. This
conference is built on our participants each bringing their
experience, ideas, and insight to the discussions we host. Our
participants are all experienced industry professionals working as
software development engineers or software testing engineers. For the
limited number of spaces available in each year's conference, we ask
each applicant to share what they would bring to the discussions as an
active participant in the conference.
