1 Sponsorship Options for TestBash Brighton 2019 Part of the Ministry of Testing family

2 Why Support TestBash? TestBash Brighton, the home of TestBash software testing conferences, is back again in And we feel it is time to add on an extra day to the spectacular testing extravaganza. We will be expecting over 500 software testers on the main TestBash conference day. One thing that has been in our heart for a long time is to figure out how to support newer testers. We ve long felt that the material and events out there are not suited to provide a new tester with what they need. Whilst traditional TestBash days are great for any tester, we feel there is a gap to teach the newer tester good testing things at a level and environment they feel comfortable in. This is why we ve introduced TestBash Essentials on the Wednesday. A day long event focused on talking about testing well. These are not necessarily new ideas, more testing ideas explained well. With an additional day and a natural trend for us to ethically improve our offerings, we have amended our sponsorship offerings. We are excited to offer all sorts of things, but please pay special attention to the childcare, UnExpo and community offerings.
