Gojko Adzic was voted “Most Influential Agile Testing Professional Person” by his peers, in an award program sponsored by the Agile Testing Days conference. I was asked to give the honorific speech before the actual award ceremony. This is no doubt the highlight of my professional career – I got to give a speech to the conference participants ON A HORSE WEARING A COSTUME. It just won’t get any better than this! Here is the video – warning, it is long, I don’t have time to edit it. If it’s possible to fast forward to the end, do so and watch Gojko getting knighted by the Lord Mayor of Potsdam!
