Digital Accessibility from a Quality Assurance Perspective

6:15 PM EST Online Event - ZOOM

Join Jason Drake, Lead Accessibility Tester at CTG Canada, for a webinar journey into the realm of digital accessibility from a quality assurance (QA) perspective. With a focus on ensuring that digital products are usable by individuals with disabilities, this session explores the pivotal role QA plays in achieving, maintaining, and improving high levels of accessibility for websites and mobile apps.

Topics include:

• Understanding Accessibility Requirements as Acceptance Criteria.
• Investing in Accessibility Skills & Knowledge.
• Integrating Accessibility into the Software Development Lifecycle.
• Strategies for Maintaining & Improving Accessibility.

Why is it highly necessary to attend this webinar?

INCLUSION:
16% of the adult population - approximately 6 million Canadians - live with cognitive, motor, visual, or auditory disabilities. People with disabilities do not have the same ease of navigating an application or website. The goal of our testing expert is to ensure that the product is accessible and usable by all of your customers, including those with disabilities.

MANDATORY:

• Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) : Private or non-profit organizations with more than 50 employees and all public sector organizations must make their website and web content compliant with Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 Level AA by January 1, 2021.
• The federal law in Canada is called the ACA, or Accessible Canada Act, and it requires WCAG 2.1 AA compliance for federal government entities and sectors overseen or controlled by the federal government.

BUSINESS:
Increase the number of users, better referencing (SEO) (the algorithm takes this criterion into account to increase the SEO of a site), site and app optimization, higher conversion rate.

Futureproofing Testing

6:15PM EST Online Event - ZOOM

Do Large Language Models represent the end of testing as we know it? Are testers doomed to extinction? Or is ChatGPT this year's Watson, non-fungible tokens, or Metaverse?

Fear not, Dear Testers: testing is not going away. As long as there is new technology, there will be product risk that leads to business risk. Responsible organizations will want to know about problems that matter before it's too late.

Discovering those problems requires far more than providing input to a product and demonstrating that it produces some desirable output. Avoiding unpleasant surprises requires skilled, technically and socially competent investigators, performing experiments to reveal truths about software products and their problems.

Harnessing the Power of Human Insights for Artificial Intelligence

6:00PM EST Online Event - Zoom

In an era where technological change is being fueled by artificial intelligence, one thing is apparent - we need software testers now more than ever before. The software testing discipline has long been undervalued, under-appreciated, and at times even misrepresented. That is, until something critical breaks or we need to restore confidence with the client. However, Tariq King believes that the outlook on the testing profession is about to change. With the rise of generative AI, systems have become more adaptive and can therefore only be adequately tested post-deployment, in production or production-like environments. Join Tariq as he kicks off 2024, not with predictions about

TASSQ Event: The Importance of Accessibility in Digital Design

6:00PM EST Online Event - ZOOM

Digital Accessibility relates to the ease of use of digital services for all users regardless of how they consume the information or interact with technology. Research has shown 71% of web users with a disability leave an inaccessible website which leads to less users and less revenue. In this webinar, we will be talking about the importan

Improving the quality of your tests with mutation testing

12:00PM EST Online Event - Zoom

A lot of development teams write tests to check that their code behaves as intended. However, the quality of these tests is unfortunately often underappreciated. If any attention is paid to test quality at all, it is typically done in terms of code coverage, which, as attendees will see from examples I'm using in the talk, is a flawed metric. Yet, teams rely on the results of these tests in their software development lifecycle. Isn't there a better way to get information about the quality of our tests?

In this talk, participants will get a practical introduction to mutation testing and how this technique can be used to get better insight into the quality of their tests. After covering the underlying concepts of mutation testing and how it tries to address the above issues, I will conduct a live demo of mutation testing, covering:

• How to add mutation testing to an existing set of unit tests
