Sponsorship Opportunities

Sponsorship Information

CAST provides a forum for the presentation and discussion of influential practices and concepts in software testing. We attract a high caliber of participant, eager to discuss and debate testing topics and practices with both speakers and vendors.

Software testers are a skeptical, questioning breed. Gaining recommendations or referrals often requires that sponsors not only have quality products or services, but also demonstrate true dedication to the testing craft, community, and value system. CAST works to create an environment where sponsors can build and strengthen their relationships with the testing community.

CAST effectively couples this relationship-building opportunity for our sponsors with one of the more senior and influential participant audiences at any testing conference.

To register as a sponsor for CAST or if you have any questions about sponsorship, please send an email to CAST_sponsorship@associationforsoftwaretesting.org
