It was a great honor to be invited by Markus Gärtner to EWT26. This is the European Chapter of Weekend Testers. It was actually a meeting in which it was used my application http://www.testalways.com/2010/07/05/find-bugs-and-patterns/ to actually find the patterns and the bugs.

Besides Markus and me they were also : Anne-Marie Charrett, Pradeep Soundararajan, Yan Jiang,Alexei Barantsev, Anna Baik. Michael Bolton gave a look in the end of the meeting.

It was quite interesting and its very challenging to have a group of passionate testers from different corners of the world trying to solve a problem. The application was only an excuse but a good one because it covered a lot of aspects that people in our craft need to have in mind. It was useful to see the power of brainstorming and different approaches.

I would like to participate in as many similar meetings as possible.

As residual stuff I got some advices from Pradeep to add a note to my blog application for not publishing the solution. Also he mentioned some usability with the title of the posts. I ended up actually making some modification to my blog with this occasion.
