It’s time to unwind and breathe in a bit of testing at the Global Testing Retreat 2017. The biggest festival of the year is here for testers to come together. Unlike any other conference, GTR 2017 is an opportunity for people to learn, share and most importantly have fun. Your favorite completion QuizATAhon is back so get your thinking caps on and make sure you win the competition for yourself and your company. Global Testing Retreat brings to you the opportunity of doing things differently. Apart from being a tester you have the knack of tickling the funny bone and bring out your comic side, or you like to shake a leg but feel awkward doing it at work or if you have a few magic tricks up your sleeve and are looking to dazzle the crowd then ATA GTR2017 is the place to be. What’s more, if you have been thinking about having your family watching you speaking live, ATAGTR2017 brings to you an opportunity to bring your family and kids along*. If you think kids would not want to be a part of the event then wait, we have competitions for kids as well. Please be sure to read through the details carefully all the way to the end to access the paper submission form.
