About us

🚨 IMPORTANT INFORMATION 🚨

We have some exciting news! As part of our move into the MoTaverse, the Ministry of Testing Porto group is officially migrating away from Meetup.

Going forward, we are now known as a Chapter, and we have a brand-new home where all our future events, photos, and talks will live.

Why the move?
By joining us on the new Chapter page, your participation now counts towards your professional growth. In the MoTaverse, you’ll earn stars and badges for attending events, which display directly on your MoT profile to showcase your contributions to the community.
It’s all part of our goal to provide "Community-as-a-Service", bringing learning, events, and networking into one seamless experience.
What's more... You will also have the opportunity to join our Community Slack!! After joining the Chapter, look out for the button saying Join MoT Slack 😁

What you need to do
To stay in the loop for our upcoming Porto events, please head over to our new page and join the Chapter:

👉 Join the MoT Porto Chapter Here 👈
(It only takes one minute to create a free account.)

We’ll be phasing out this Meetup group soon, so make sure you make the jump today so you don't miss our next event!

For a deeper look at why we’re making these changes, you can check out Rosie Sherry's post: Meetups are now Chapters.

See you in the MoTaverse!

    🚀 About the Event
    For our next gathering, we are heading to the fantastic offices of ISS. We are thrilled to bring the local QA community together in this great space for an evening of technical insights, networking, and plenty of testing talk.
    Whether you're a long-time member or this is your very first event, come join us, connect with fellow testers, and dive into some of the latest strategies shaping modern QA.

    🎤 The Talks
    ➡️ Talk 1: Effective Mocking Strategies for Quality Assurance As systems become more connected through APIs, microservices, and external integrations, creating stable and reliable test environments becomes more challenging. Mocking allows QA teams to simulate dependencies, control scenarios, and test applications more efficiently without relying on unstable or unavailable services. In this session, Matheus will explore how mock strategies can improve automation reliability, accelerate testing workflows, and support better quality practices throughout the development lifecycle.

    • Speaker: Matheus Neves

    ➡️ Talk 2: Playwright + Copilot = ♥️ We are excited to have our very own Lia Moreira back on stage! We are currently finalizing the pitch for her session, but you can expect a fantastic deep dive into how Playwright and Copilot team up to supercharge your test automation. Stay tuned for the full description!
