A number of SWELLers have just come back from a trip to China. It's been very interesting. We've meet with Chinese Academy of Science and several companies (Swedish and Chinese) in the Beijing area. I'll try to write up a short summary of the trip the coming weeks!

SWELL has gotten a new director. Robert Feldt has moved to China and the steering group decided to appoint Richard Torkar as new director for SWELL.
Professor Natalia Juristo visited one of the SWELL universities (BTH) and talked about how Software Engineering research becomes more scientific and focus on collecting empirical evidence. This is important especially in testing where there are a number of myths about what works and not. You can find her lecture here:

By making collaboration between industry and academia scientific progress can be driven by real, industrial data. This way the companies also get better evidence for which changes to make. --- SWELL is a National Innovation Driver for Software V&V funded by Vinnova and a number of Swedish universities and companies. http://www.swell.se The first SWELL summer school is currently taking place in Gothenburg. We have discussed SWELL in general, given feedback to PhD students and had two courses. You can find more information on this page:

More info about interesting new results will be coming shortly on this blog. On the first day Paul Ammann gave a tutorial on "Software Testing - A Newcomer's guide". It is a good overview of the area and defines the basic concepts. You can find the slides here: The International Conference on Software Testing, Verification and Validation was started in 2008 and was a big success. Lots of interest from both industry and academia, many new results and interesting discussions. The 2nd SWELL workshop will take place in Lund on March 24 2009. | V&V News
