Property-Based Testing in C# - A Smarter Approach to Test Automation
Traditional unit tests rely on carefully crafted examples, but what if you could have your computer generate and verify thousands of test cases for you? Property-based testing is a powerful technique that allows developers to define expected properties of their code and let a testing framework explore edge cases automatically.
This session introduces property-based testing in C#, demonstrating how it differs from unit testing, how it can uncover hidden bugs and when (or when not!) to apply it.
Through practical examples using FsCheck, attendees will learn how to generate random test data, define meaningful properties, and apply property-based testing to real-world scenarios. Whether you’re new to property-based testing or looking to deepen your understanding, this talk will provide actionable insights to improve the reliability and robustness of your code and tests.

Terraforming Security & DevOps: Automating IAM, SDLC & Cloud
In today’s cloud-native environments, balancing security, compliance, and operational efficiency is no small task. Enforce controls too strictly and developers are hindered, too loosely and you have security risks at hand.
During this talk, we will dive into how we standardized and automated key DevOps components across Azure DevOps, Azure, and Azure Entra ID for an InsurTech customer.
The objective was to reduce manual & error-prone work, improving security adoption, creating a developer-friendly environment and simplifying onboarding. We’ll explore:
• Automating Infrastructure & DevOps Workflows: Terraform-driven provisioning of projects, repositories, pipelines, policies, and access control.
• Security by Design: Enforcing best practices for role-based access and compliance.
• Consistent Naming Conventions & Governance: How a unified approach simplifies operations across the entire tech stack.
• Frictionless Onboarding with Access Packages: Enabling self-service access while maintaining security integrity.
Why Attend?
• Learn real-world automation strategies that can be applied immediately to your own DevOps workflows.
• Understand how automation can bridge the gap between security & development teams and enforce standards by design.
• Discover how naming conventions & governance simplify the landscape while boosting security compliance.
