The EuroSTAR Conference is the largest gathering of European software testing professionals. The 2024 EuroSTAR Software Testing Conference will take place at Stockholmsmässan, Sweden, 11-14 June 2024.
History of EuroSTAR Software Testing
editThe first EuroSTAR conference took place in London in October 1993 as a sister conference of (US-based) STAR Conferences organised by William C. Hetzel and Gelperin in conjunction with the British Computer Society.[1]
EuroSTAR stands for European Software Testing Analysis & Review.
EuroSTAR is the longest running and largest European software testing and quality assurance conference that takes place in a different European city each year.
Other
editThe annual conference has been the origin of many milestones in the history of software testing including the introduction of the W-Model by Paul Herzlich in 1993,[2][1] the foundation of Dutch Special Interest Group in Software Testing (SIGIST) TestNet at EuroSTAR 1996 [3][1] and the foundation of the Test Lab (2009) which has since become a focal point at many international conferences on software testing.[1] Proceedings at EuroSTAR have been cited in many publications on software testing[4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] and the conference is regularly featured on international software testing conference lists and IT journals.[12][13][14]
EuroSTAR Testing Excellence Award
editThe EuroSTAR European Testing Excellence Award has been awarded at the annual EuroSTAR Conference since 1998.[15] The award seeks to recognise significant contributions to the field of software testing in Europe. Gerald Weinberg.[16] is a past winner of the award.
