I'm an agile/XP tester who will be in London the week of 3/30, so I will try to come by and meet whatever Extreme folks are at XTC! It sounds great!

I started working on my first XP team in 2000, but I had almost 2 years in there where I wasn't on an XP team. I'm happy to be back on a Scrum/XP team at a small company called Fast401k, in Denver, Colorado. Mike Cohn is my boss, he just published the book "Effective User Stories" with Addison-Wesley (gotta give him a plug, it's a great book even if he weren't my boss).

I co-wrote a book "Testing Extreme Programming" with Tip House, part of the A-W XP series. I'm no guru, but someone had to write a book to try to explain how testers could contribute on XP teams (and why you need us, because we want to play too!) I enjoy exchanging ideas and experiences with other XP testers and practitioners.
