We, the QE tools team within SUSE, would like to host a interactive discussion round focusing on openQA and Quality Assurance (QA) in general. Rather than another "getting started" workshop, this session will be an opportunity for openQA users and developers to engage in an open exchange about testing methodologies, challenges, and best practices.
We will kick off the session with a short presentation on recent or lesser-known openQA features to spark discussions. The rest of the workshop will follow a "Ask the openQA Devs Anything" format, where attendees can bring their toughest QA and testing-related questions to the developers and experts.
