And it's not just about letting AI help you with a Test Plan, but in essence any kind of "documentation" we work with based in requirements.

Again a project that startd a year ago comes to an end. Thanx, @tinestaric.bsky.social , it was a pleasure to work with you on this.
🙈 Couldn’t join yesterday? You missed .... !

But good news - The full session is on YouTube.

This was a great project to work on with @tinestaric.bsky.social and not only applicable to #testplans.

We'll show #AI is not only a help while coding, but also when dealing with requirements, documentation, etc.
🚀Webinar Alert: Stop Writing Test Plans from Scratch!
📅Dec 8, 2025
🕓16:00 CET

Quality software starts with a solid plan—but creating #testplans often feels like a time-consuming chore. What if #AI could change that?

I was fortunate to attend this session live at #DaysOfKnowledge in Darmstadt and was really impressed.
So happy that Stefan agreed to perform it as an Areopa webinar.
Inefficient #AL code can overload #SQL and slow Business Central.
In this session, Stefan Šošić breaks down the pitfalls and shows better ways to code for performance.

Why doesn't the #msdyn365bc world embrace #PowerPlatform? @waldo1001.bsky.social and @tinestaric.bsky.social tackle the real arguments - price, skills, maintainability. Some valid, some outdated. This recording brings clarity to both sides of the conversation.

No way Hertz is going to help, that's has become clear today.
After various years of hiring a car from them, I am never going to hire one again.
What a disrespect towards a customer (and I fear I am not the only one).
Whom else is affected by Hertz not living up to their promise to provide you a car per the reservation you made?
And leaving you to only find out when you're at the desk to pick-up that car, while you made your reservations weeks or even months ago?

What a display of disrespect!
