Nordic Testing Days, Talin Estonia
Discovering Logic In Testing.
We all test in different ways and sometimes it can be hard to explain the thought processes behind how we test. What leads us into trying certain things and how do we draw conclusions, surely there is more going on here than intuition and luck? After working in games testing for almost a decade, I will draw from my personal experience to explain how games testers develop advanced logical reasoning skills.

Learning is important to us and we want to learn from our mistakes. Yet this trait makes us focus on the mistakes that we have made.
