Talk

Ancient philosophy, modern methods

Stephen Platten 

In this talk I will examine how Stoic principles like focusing on what’s within our control, embracing challenges, and maintaining a clam mindset can help your testing. The talk will explore parallels between Stoicism and modern testing, offering tips on how to manage ambiguity, solve problems and improve collaboration.

The aim of this talk is to give attendees a fresh perspective on testing through the lens of ancient philosophy.
