@brendan.donegan is doing a talk at a local meetup in a few weeks, and thought it best to share any ideas and feedback here

For those of you looking for a general introduction to and demo of contract testing with Pact-JVM and Pactflow, a discussion on some of the implementation challenges of CDCT and how bidirectional contracts can help, I did a talk on just that yesterday: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bxdK3zJ8boU

I just wanted to express my gratitude once more to the Pact(-Flow) team here. I ran a half day contract testing workshop at the expo:QA conference earlier this week, using Pact-JVM and PactFlow, and it was a massive success if I may say so myself. Lots of positive feedback on the tools and how to use them in a contract testing workflow.
Next up: Canada in September! https://kwsqa.org/tq2023/schedule/presenters-day-1-workshops/

Awesome! Is the Kitchener-Waterloo workshop online or in person?
I think a cross-post into #general is worth it given the low membership (and visibility) of this channel

Hey! Join me and the LambdaTest team on September 25 as I talk about integration testing challenges, how contract testing, Pact and PactFlow can help address these and the different types of contract testing.
More information and registration here: https://www.lambdatest.com/webinar/solving-the-integration-testing-puzzle-with-contract-testing
See you there!

Not a talk or a conference per se, but starting next month I'll run *free* hands-on workshops once a month on several different topics, including a workshop on contract testing with Pact (JVM to start with) on December 11. For those of you just starting out, this might be a good opportunity to not just hear what contract testing is all about, but also to get a feel for what it takes to write consumer-driven and bidirectional contract tests in Java with Pact and Pactflow.
More information, including a link to a blog post with the why, what and how, and a registration form can be found here: https://www.ontestautomation.com/free-public-workshops/
Feel free to share this with anyone you think might be interested.
Oh, did I say it was *free*?

Awesome! I think given you are doing a Pact workshop here, it warrants greater visibility (this channel has only 31 members :sads: )
