openQA - current state and moving forward
Evolving as a project
Santiago Zarate
I've been working with Free and Open Source software for about 15 years, Developer, Sysadmin, Developer again, Technical QA, OS Gutter, QA Again and now backend Developer for OpenQA with a twist.
I'm a guy that writes Perl code and likes to have fun making software and hardware do fun stuff while eating Maria Cookies (They are awesome!).
I believe in E-Voting and Open Government!, operating system agnostic, with a passion for Quality Assurance, Mechanical Keyboards and Software Engineering.
Working as Quality Assurance Engineer at SUSE
Oliver Kurz
Since 2015-11 working at SUSE as a Senior QA Engineer. I am currently the Product Owner for the SUSE QE Tools Team. Our main product that we develop is openQA, a software for system level test automation, mainly used for Linux distribution system testing, for example for both SLE as well as openSUSE. Interested in software development, system development, GNU/Linux, open source, agile project management and structured testing.
No video of the event yet, sorry!
openQA is one of the key elements that ensures the delivery of updates and new versions of operating systems, it is the heart of openSUSE's effort to deliver stable systems for our users, and SUSE's quality gate, used to ensure that updates and new releases of the operating systems aren't breaking operations of customers; however it is growing outside openSUSE, Fedora and SUSE, expanding to other distributions, so we need to start thinking how to collaborate further, and have a clearer picture for users of openQA's ecosystem and integration capabilities.
The speaker will give a quick overview of features, challenges and opportunities for further development, but also, wants to provide a window into how to close the gap between users outside of openSUSE/SUSE and the openQA development team
Santiago Zarate is the Product Owner of Quality Engineering Core team at SUSE, they collaborate closely with the Quality Engineering Tools Team and rest of the teams of the Quality Engineering department
