Track Talk T1

Behind the Scenes of QA in the Kotlin Team

Liliia Abdulina

11:00 - 11:45 CEST Thursday 5th June

What does quality assurance look like for a programming language team? And more importantly — why does it evolve in certain ways?

In this session, we’ll walk through the story of the Kotlin QA team, from its humble beginnings in 2015 with just one member, to a team of 25 today. We’ll explore the gradual transformations in our team structure and processes, shaped by the unique challenges and demands brought on by the growth and maturation of Kotlin and its ecosystem.

Through the lens of the Kotlin team, you’ll discover why embracing complexity is sometimes essential, when to adapt processes, and how to align QA with the evolving needs of a product team. This is a rare opportunity to peek behind the curtain of QA for a programming language and its ecosystem as intricate and far-reaching as Kotlin.
