Does Testing Equal QA? Lessons Beyond Software Development

Quality assurance is much more than just testing — it's a way to ensure that outcomes will meet expectations. Designing processes that build quality from the start, we reduce reliance on testing afterwards while achieving better, more consistent results. In this talk, I'll demonstrate how QA principles apply universally, from software development to hiring, security, and even organising meetups.

I'll share practical strategies, such as long-term community work and mentorship instead of reviewing CVs and exhaustive interviews for hiring, investing in continuous training instead of excessive audits for security, and pair work with speakers instead of merely filtering them by their proposals.

“Quality is not something you can inspect into a product” — it's the result of deliberate, thoughtful processes. This talk will inspire you to rethink how you approach quality at work.

Don’t aim for more testing, aim for higher quality!
