EuroSTAR Conference

Europe's Best Software Testing Conference

Volunteer

EuroSTAR is Europe’s largest software testing conference – bringing software testers and quality assurance professionals together since 1993!

At the heart of EuroSTAR is the incredible community of software engineers, QA engineers, developers in test as well as test managers and consultants. Finding your tribe is so important and we encourage our attendees to meet fellow testers, network with industry leaders and above all learn from each other.

The EuroSTAR volunteers are a core part of our Conference team. You will interact with delegates and play an active part of our central community hub.

We are seeking enthusiastic testers to volunteer as part of our team, from 13-16 June 2023 in Antwerp, and in return you’ll have the opportunity to attend talks and build your professional network within the European testing community.

Check out the EuroSTAR Programme to see what you will be part of. Then view each of the volunteer areas below for details on what is required. Fill in the form at the end to apply!

What Do EuroSTAR Volunteers Do?

Volunteers exchange work for an opportunity to attend talks and workshops at the EuroSTAR Software Testing Conference. Typically, there are 4 main areas where volunteers can get involved as part of our team.

EuroSTAR Cadets

Get involved in every part of the conference: whether it’s directing attendees, assisting in tutorials, or helping at the information desk, being a EuroSTAR Cadet means you explore the conference from a different perspective.

The EuroSTAR Cadets role runs over the four days of the event, with allocated shifts giving you the opportunity to attend sessions.

Huddle Hosts

This role involves a variety of different duties. You might be hosting an Ask me Anything session with one of our EuroSTAR speakers, lead the way with a Community Session on Diversity or run a Lean Coffee discussion.

You can also take part in the background planning and running the Huddle events as part of the EuroSTAR 2023 community programme.

Test Lab Masters

As a Test Lab Master, you will create games, puzzles, and bug hunts to challenge the minds of the testers.

The Test Lab is usually a 15 minute session taking place during breaks and lunches.

Test Clinic Doctors

The Test Clinic is like a “doctor’s clinic” for testing problems. Software testers come here to ask for help with day to day testing issues which you then help to solve.

Test Clinics will run during breaks and lunches. They are usually 15 minutes and will be a mix of public sessions, or private sessions by appointment.
