I'm closing Smest.it after 2 years of trying to get the marketing for Smest.it right and still not seeing any opportunity to make this company profitable in the future. I was not an easy decision but even being a Top 20 Tech Startup is not helping today if the marketing is not converting. In the next days I'll regain some energy I put the last years into this project. Next year new topics will get my attention. It won't get boring with me. Promise. Ich wish you all a merry Christmas.
I'm happy that I got this weekend the opportunity to speak at PHP Srbjia in Belgrad. I talked again about SmokeTests - The what, why and how. This time I had 15 minutes more for going into more details about testing of websites. Again I was not alone in Belgrad. This time Steffi joined me on my journey to Serbia and we enjoyed her birthday before we had to go back home.
SmokeTests Talk PHP Srbjia WebsiteI'm happy to announce that I got invited to speak twice at this years developers conference ConFoo in Montreal, Canada. The topic of both talks is testing of software and websites. Well, that's the topic I spend most of my time with. The fist one is called "PHPUnit in 4 parts" and the second is called "SmokeTests - The what, why and how". What makes me even more happy is that my brother is joining me on this journey. We'll take a few days ahead of the conference to visit Toronto and maybe the Niagara Falls.
PHPUnit Talk SmokeTests Talk ConFoo WebsiteToday I learned in that my company Smest.it made it into the finals of the Top Tech Startup 2018 Awards. Before I got notified by the organizer I saw already traffic from their announcement page comming in. What a big surprise. I haven't expected it. Now you need to vote for "Smest.it UG" on their website. Thanks in advance for your support.
