I'm co-organising the Agile Testing & BDD eXchange, and I thought some of you may enjoy coming along?! The Agile Testing & BDD eXchange NYC is a 1-day conference on Agile Testing, Specification by example and Behaviour Driven Development, and will be held in New York on September 20th.


Keen to learn the latest ideas & best practices in Agile Development & Testing? Or would you like to find out how Bank of America used modern practices like Deliberate Discovery and Behavior-Driven Development to transform their culture to one where empowerment and learning rules?


Want to know how to have meaningful conversations with stakeholders and get useful feedback that will help you write better, more powerful software? Software that delivers what the business needs when it needs it? Or simply want to make others aware of PHPSpec?


If the answer is yes to some of these questions, check out the Agile Testing & BDD eXchange NYC


The conference will feature some of the world's top agile experts, like Gojko Adzic (of ATDD and Impact Mapping fame), Martine Devos (bringing decades of experience helping teams collaborate and be more successful), and other experts (including Gordon Weir, Tony Bruce, Marton Meszaros, Jeffrey Davidson, Lav Pathak & Sam Hotop) who will all share the latest ideas in Software Craftsmanship, BDD, A/TDD and Deliberate Discovery with you.


Come along and learn how you can use these techniques to bridge the communication gap between stakeholders and software delivery teams. Learn and share practices and skills that help improve productivity, drastically reduce time to market of business critical features - and ensure you'll have (more) fun in the process!
