BAFS 2015 Genève : Rainer Wendt - More business in the driver's seat : BA wor...BAFS Rainer Wendt discusses how business analysts working in the product owner role can help put more business in the driver's seat of agile projects. As product owners from business often lack time and experience to fully own the product backlog, business analysts can support them by defining user stories, acceptance criteria, prioritizing requirements, and facilitating collaboration between business stakeholders and the development team. This shared product owner/business analyst model helps address the common dilemma of part-time product owners from business and bridges communication between business and IT for effective agile delivery.

From Manual to Auto Searching- FME in the Driver's Seat
From Manual to Auto Searching- FME in the Driver's SeatSafe Software Finding a specific car online can be a time-consuming task, especially when checking multiple dealer websites. A few years ago, I faced this exact problem while searching for a particular vehicle in New Zealand. The local classified platform, Trade Me (similar to eBay), wasn’t yielding any results, so I expanded my search to second-hand dealer sites—only to realise that periodically checking each one was going to be tedious. That’s when I noticed something interesting: many of these websites used the same platform to manage their inventories. Recognising this, I reverse-engineered the platform’s structure and built an FME workspace that automated the search process for me. By integrating API calls and setting up periodic checks, I received real-time email alerts when matching cars were listed. In this presentation, I’ll walk through how I used FME to save hours of manual searching by creating a custom car-finding automation system. While FME can’t buy a car for you—yet—it can certainly help you find the one you’re after!
WebdriverIO & JavaScript: The Perfect Duo for Web Automation
WebdriverIO & JavaScript: The Perfect Duo for Web Automationdigitaljignect In today’s dynamic digital landscape, ensuring the quality and dependability of web applications is essential. While Selenium has been a longstanding solution for automating browser tasks, the integration of WebdriverIO (WDIO) with Selenium and JavaScript marks a significant advancement in automation testing. WDIO enhances the testing process by offering a robust interface that improves test creation, execution, and management. This amalgamation capitalizes on the strengths of both tools, leveraging Selenium’s broad browser support and WDIO’s modern, efficient approach to test automation. As automation testing becomes increasingly vital for faster development cycles and superior software releases, WDIO emerges as a versatile framework, particularly potent when paired with JavaScript, making it a preferred choice for contemporary testing teams.

Build an AI Agent in 10 Lines of Code and the Concepts Behind the Code
Abstract: In this talk we will demonstrate building a working data science AI agent in 10 lines of basic Python code in a Colab notebook. Our AI Agent will perform LLM prompt-driven visual analysis using open-source libraries. In this session we will show how to develop an AI Agent using GPUs through NVIDIA’s developer program and Google Colab notebooks. After coding our AI Agent, we will break down the 10 lines of code. We will show the key components and open source library integrations that enable the agent's functionality, focusing on practical implementation details and then the theoretical concepts. The presentation concludes with a survey of current LLM technologies and the latest trends in developing AI applications for enthusiasts and enterprises

Using the SQLExecutor for Data Quality Management: aka One man's love for the...Safe Software The SQLExecutor is one of FME’s most powerful and flexible transformers. Pivvot maintains a robust internal metadata hierarchy used to support ingestion and curation of thousands of external data sources that must be managed for quality before entering our platform. By using the SQLExecutor, Pivvot can efficiently detect problems and perform analysis before data is extracted from our staging environment, removing the need for rollbacks or cycles waisted on a failed job. This presentation will walk through three distinct examples of how Pivvot uses the SQLExecutor to engage its metadata hierarchy and integrate with its Data Quality Management workflows efficiently and within the source postgres database. Spatial Validation –Validating spatial prerequisites before entering a production environment. Reference Data Validation - Dynamically validate domain-ed columns across any table and multiple columns per table. Practical De-duplication - Removing identical or near-identical well point locations from two distinct source datasets in the same table.
