Call For the Industry Track

The objective of the Industry track is to establish a meaningful dialog among software practitioners and with software engineering researchers on the results (both good and bad), obstacles, and lessons learned associated with applying software development practices in various environments. The Industry Practice presentations will provide accounts of the application of software testing & validation practices (which may be principles, techniques, tools, methods, processes, testing techniques etc.) to a specific domain or to the development of a significant software system. In particular, we are interested in the evaluation in industrial context of emerging software testing techniques and methods, and/or in the application to innovative application in domains such as Internet of Things, Mobiles apps, Cloud based software, embedded software. We would like the Industry presentations to be of interest to software development professionals as well as software quality groups. Submissions We seek submissions of two pages abstracts by authors in the software testing community on industry relevant topics in technology, tools and practices related to software testing, quality, safety, metrics, reliability, and modeling. The one page abstracts should contain: • A problem definition and its importance • Any potential solution tried to address the problem • Analysis of the results / lessons learned • Outline of the talk itself In addition, the submission may contain example slides or as much of the actual presentation as the author wants to submit. Each accepted presentation will have 20-30 min to present at the main conference. Review Process Since the goal of this track is to establish a dialog between practitioners and testers, this track will be as inclusive as possible. Submissions will be reviewed by the organizing committee and selected based on their interest and relevance to the wider testing community and the availability of speaking slots.  How to submit? Submissions will be handled via email: icst2016.industry.track@gmail.com. Please specify ICST INDUSTRY track submission in the subject of the email and attach your paper to the email. Important Dates Submissions: January 25^th, 2016 Notification: February 15^th, 2016
