EuroSTAR Conference

Europe's Best Software Testing Conference

EuroSTAR Social Events

EuroSTAR 2025 is taking place in Edinburgh! During the 4 days of EuroSTAR, there will be plenty of informal connection opportunities – bumping into people in between conference sessions, over a coffee, during lunch, and the action packed EXPO Hall.

Once the talks end at the conference, it’s on to our EuroSTAR networking events. Reconnect at the EXPO Party Drinks, make new friends and lifelong memories at the Awards Night, and lots more.

Celebrating the EuroSTAR Community

We’re in awe of the amazing community that has evolved over the last 3 decades of EuroSTAR – a community of inspiration, leadership, innovation, and friendship. This is THE largest gathering of software testers in Europe!

Networking is one of the top reasons that so many testers flock to EuroSTAR. Between the daily networking events, community Huddle area, packed expo hall, and the corridor chats between conference sessions, we facilitate exceptional networking opportunities, so you can focus on meeting the people who will help you most. You’ll leave EuroSTAR feeling inspired, with valuable, new connections and a strong network of testers you can call on after the conference.
