Metrics just for the sake of information often just end up in spreadsheets no one cares about.
Santa Clara, CA (PRWEB) April 18, 2014
XBOSoft’s founder and CEO, Dr. Philip Lew has been invited this spring to speak at Quest, STPCon, and STAREAST, three of the most popular QA and testing conferences this spring.
On April 7, Phil Lew had a successful full day workshop at Quest in Baltimore on Software Quality Metrics Best Practices. In this workshop he explained that when implementing metrics you first need to understand the purpose of the metric and who will be using it. “Metrics just for the sake of information, while helpful, often just end up in spreadsheets that no one cares about. Not only do you need to learn how to define and develop metrics that connect with potential actions driving toward improvement, you also understand and avoid one of the main pitfalls of metrics, driving behavior which could be both unintended and negative”, says Phil.
On April 16, Phil spoke on Improving Mobile Application Usability at the STPCon in New Orleans. This full-day tutorial assisted attendees from start to finish in examining their users’ needs and requirements to roll out a kick-butt mobile application that meets business goals while satisfying end users.
And next month, May 7, Phil will be speaking at STAREAST in Orlando. At this conference he will hold another session on mobile, focusing on the User Experience (UX) aspects of mobile application development.
Also at STAREAST, Phil will take center stage with some of the best known experts in testing such as Scott Barber, Jennifer Bonine, Bob Galen, Thomas McCoy, Jeff “Cheezy” Morgan, Alan Richardson, Jared Richardson, Lloyd Roden, Alan Page, and Rob Sabourin at one of the lightening key note speakers. “I am looking forward to sharing ideas with this audience along with many other well known leaders in the software quality domain who have contributed so much to the QA and testing world,” says Phil.
