Alan and Brent talk about Modern Testing (which isn't all that modern, and not really about testing - except when it is). Every other week or so, A&B tell stories and discuss what's happening in the world of software - including a variety of topics like Agile, Lean, Delivery, DevOps, Data Science, Experimentation, Leadership, and more.

Lisa Crispin ,

Always relevant & interesting!

I’ve listened for umpteen years and am grateful for all I’ve learned here. Only suggestion for improvement- more diversity please. In the guests and in the references you talk about. 💜

One of The Three

A & B testing podcast is one of my favorite podcasts ( even across all genres, not just “testing”!) Love the wit and straightforwardness from Alan and Brent, on just about any topics!

When I first started listening to this podcast two years ago as an entry level SDET, it really opened my eyes to how “testing” can be done and should be done. In my organization no one had talked about or done things this way, yet Alan and Brent’s stance on testing made so much sense and was strikingly enlightening to me.

My favourite episode is probably episode 133. I find myself coming back to it every once in a while. ( The pain of dealing with flaky tests is too real 🥲)

TLDR; I highly recommend this podcast!

Wonderful podcast. It's so enjoyable. And a good source of information to think about too. I wonder if I can mention it as a source of information on my hopefully soon-to-be-job-interviews))
Thank you, Alan and Brent! Please don't stop
