About the Presentation

Sandworms, Emergent Strategy, and Bug Hunting: Lessons from Dune for Software Testing
Keynote Speech

In the vast and treacherous deserts of Arrakis, where sandworms roam and spice flows, lie lessons waiting to be discovered. Drawing inspiration from the world of Dune and the wonders of nature’s emergent systems, we embark on a journey to explore new frontiers in testing strategies for software development. 

Just as the Fremen of Arrakis adapt their tactics to the ever-shifting sands, software testers can learn from nature’s adaptive brilliance. This talk delves into the concept of emergence, where complex behavior emerges from simple rules, mirroring the unpredictability of sandworms beneath the dunes.
