Update! Speakers & Talks for GTAC 2010

We are thrilled to announce the speakers and talks for the 5th Google Test Automation Conference (GTAC). This year’s event will have a total of 11 talks. This includes the three keynotes that we announces earlier and eight other talks. These talks span the three sub-categories of Testing, Testability and Test Automation which are an integral part of this year’s theme “Test to Testability”.

As we had shared earlier, for this year’s GTAC we used a new process of letting the selected attendees vote on the talks they wanted be a part of GTAC. The committee tallied the votes and ensures a healthy distribution between topics and participants from across the globe and relevance to our theme. We received over 80 submissions and have an acceptance rate of about 10%. Our thanks to everyone who submitted a proposal and all the attendees who voted to make this a successful process.

Here is the list of talks. More details can be found at the select talks page on the GTAC site.
