CITCON

May 11, 2008 in CI, Conferences

CITCON (Continuous Integration & Testing Conference) is a free conference being held in Melbourne this June. CI certainly seems to be a hot topic at the moment & I’m hoping to pick up some tips for my own efforts with PHP Under Control.

Here’s the official release:

Melbourne is hosting a free technical conference in June. The conference is called CITCON, Continuous Integration and Testing conference. There is no cost, we just want people to contribute to discussions and presentations.



The Open Information Foundation, co-founded by Jeffrey Fredrick and Paul Julius, presents CITCON Asia/Pacific 2007 in Sydney, Australia.
CITCON (Continuous Integration and Testing Conference) brings together people from every corner of the software development industry to discuss Continuous Integration and the type of Testing that goes along with it.

I’ve also blogged on it. http://www.testingreflections.com/node/view/6886

After a great conference in Sydney last year, The Continuous Integration and Testing conference (CITCON) is coming to Melbourne in 2008. It’s an open space conference where we all meet the night before to propose and vote for sessions then spend Saturday sharing ideas and experiences, presenting, discussing and demoing. It was an amazing experience last year. The Denver CITCON has just happened (http://citconf.com/wiki/index.php?title=CITCONDenver2008Sessions) and June is not far away.



The venue is being decided but it is central Melbourne. Best of all this is a free conference, running on sponsorship. Last year folk came from the US, NZ and around Australia, and everyone thought it was great. Registration numbers are a little low at the moment compared to the past conferences in Europe and the US and even Sydney, so if you want to come, register now. http://citconf.com/melbourne2008/
Venue should be announced shortly.



Please circulate this amongst interested folk….

cheers,
