OpenText Summit: Why This Free Event Is Worth Your Time

OpenText Summit 2026

You walk into a room where people are talking about the exact problems you wrestle with: tricky deployments, clunky processes, and how to test faster. Sometimes, the right conversation with the right person is enough to unlock a solution or a possibility you hadn’t even considered.

OpenText Summit London 2026 is aimed at senior IT and software testing professionals.

You can sit in on real customer stories, watch live demos, and ask questions about what works in practice. You leave with specific ideas you can try, not just slideware, and because the event is free, the only thing you are investing is your time.

As an OpenText Gold Partner, Calleo will be there.

We’d be happy to discuss software testing, in particular, how other companies are benefiting from the solutions and how you can implement those ideas in your own environment.

On 16 April 2026, at the QEII Centre in London, you can join an in-person day with the people, ideas, and technology that help you take control of your AI journey.

Contact Calleo if you’re interested in attending and would like to meet up.

Functional Testing 26.1: Adds Python, Cloud Testing, and more AI

With 26.1, OpenText is giving you something concrete: Python‑based automation, AI‑assisted verification, and cloud labs that fit into your existing CI/CD. This turns functional testing from a separate QA activity into a shared capability that developers, SDETs, and testers can all contribute to.

LoadRunner 26.1: A New Direction in Performance Testing?

OpenText’s version 26.1 is a clear statement of where the Performance Engineering (LoadRunner) family is heading: AI-assisted, simplifying complex tasks and enabling your team to be more productive. This creates a very practical question: how do you buy and deploy these new capabilities in a way that actually moves the needle on risk, cost, and delivery speed?

Hooked on Open Source

Revealed: How Consultancies Get You Hooked on Bad Tools

Picture the scene: you’re about to engage a consultancy for testing services, and their proposal leans heavily on open‑source tools, but there’s a nagging doubt… a misalignment between what you’re paying for and what they’re delivering.

You want the guidance and support to prevent costly mistakes; they want more billable days.

2025 Roundup: Check Out The Top 5 Testing Times Articles

Thanks to your support, 2025 was another excellent year for Testing Times and our 10,000+ subscribers. We explored a wide range of software testing topics, including test automation, performance testing, Jira fatigue, tester authority, and more.

Is WFH worth the risk

Remote Testing: Is Working From Home Worth The Risk?

Increasingly, organisations expect remote and hybrid testers to use borrowed tool licences, unstable VPNs, and software never designed to leave the office. That creates significant compliance and security risks that can turn into serious long‑term problems. It’s not the testers per se, but remote execution over on‑prem licences is a software audit waiting to happen. Read on to learn why a compliance nightmare isn’t the only reason your test setup might not be fit for distributed and home‑working team members.

Effortless automation

Solved: 4 Common Test Automation Headaches

Software teams know the story all too well: automation promises speed and reliability, but reality often brings fragile scripts, phantom failures, and endless rework. In the end, the technology intended to accelerate releases ends up bogging things down. Or at least, that’s how things used to be… Today’s AI-powered functional

Test the Untestable

Test the Untestable: Unlock Savings & Accelerate Your Project

Testers have long been asked to test earlier, faster, and more often. In truth, however, when critical APIs, integrations, or microservices aren’t ready, testing gets stuck. We’ve all been there, raring to go, like greyhounds in the slips…  but with nothing to test, and increasingly concerned about the impending last-minute panic.
