On February 21, 2026, 𝐍𝐒𝐓𝐐𝐁 𝐀𝐬𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐝 2026 – 𝙌𝙪𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙮 𝘾𝙤𝙣𝙛𝙚𝙧𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙚 brought together testing professionals, industry leaders, and practitioners in Kathmandu for a day dedicated to learning, reflection, and meaningful conversations around software quality.

Hosted by NSTQB®- Nepal Software Testing Qualifications Body, the conference was about going back to fundamentals, questioning how we do things today, and exploring how quality practices need to evolve with real industry needs.

We were grateful to learn from our world class speakers, who shared practical insights and global perspectives with the community:
•Joel Oliveira brought valuable perspectives from his global experience, reinforcing the importance of strong foundations and continuous learning in quality practices.
• Michaël Pilaeten spoke about strengthening testing fundamentals and applying quality techniques grounded in international standards.
• Dmitrij Nikolajev challenged us to think differently with The Other ROI, looking beyond tools to understand the true value and regret in automation decisions.
• Dr. Lovelesh Beeharry shared how quality engineering must move beyond ex*****on to create real world impact.
• Nishan Portoyan spoke about future QA skills, critical thinking, and adapting quality fundamentals in an AI enabled world.
• Zsolt Hargitai shared practical approaches to test process improvement and maturity.
• Anit Shrestha brought in hands on industry experiences, real challenges, and lessons from working with large scale global platforms.

What stood out throughout the day was the shared understanding that quality is not just a role or a checklist. It is a mindset, a strategy, and a continuous journey of improvement.

Our sincere thanks to all the speakers, participants, volunteers, and community members who made this conference meaningful. Your engagement, questions, and openness to learning are what continue to raise the standard of quality practices in Nepal.
