Day 2 at #robocon Integrating #robotframework in to #n8n Similar to the approach that Camunda took, but without rpaframework legacy. Looking forward to talk to Namik in the next break and discuss a few ideas like LSP integration or different Syntax for tasks.

I don't recall what I actually said. 30 minutes in stage passed in an instant! I tried to convey different approaches how to use (and support) open source. I have to wait until the recording to learn what I said. But getting the full community love […] [Original post on fosstodon.org]

#robocon is also time to meet old friends and exchange presents. I am very bad at the latter as it never occurs to me I had something special to give away. But I am very touched how thoughtful people choose gifts for me 🩵

Talk by #teamscale : With research on your test base, you can visualize test clusters that overlap and identify test cases adding most coverage to the run. For testing the approach, you need to create bugs for testing tests using an old friend: mutation […] [Original post on fosstodon.org]

Thanks to timezone issues I am an hour too early for my rehearsal at #robocon Many activities around the conference happen in cafes and bars, depending on the time. People meet up, having a coffee, delicious chocolate and watch busy #Helsinki coated in finest snow.

1 day before #robocon While everyone is at the unconference, I am polishing my slides for my talk tomorrow. Tomorrow afternoon I will be presenting thoughts and experiences on how to integrate open source adoption in business strategies. With examples from #RobotFramework

So many impressions from my first visit at #FOSDEM One is the vast amount of stickers @nlnet offered at their stand. One stack of stickers for each project they funded. Absolutely impressive.

@sraible Looking forward! Newbie question for #FOSDEM though: I will join today for the first time and have bookmarked a few talks of the policy track in the companion app. They are marked now as FULL Should I have registered somewhere? 🙀

#camocopy is the most useless AI I tried so far. Whenever I think there is no other way to misinterpret the prompt it always surprises me. It's they should name it camody. It would be funny if it would not be such a waste of time. Anyone knows an alternative to #Perplexity or #copilot ?
