German Testing Night 2026 at imbus: Three talks, one evening, plenty of opportunities for discussion

09/16/2026

On October 8, 2026, German Testing Night will once again take place at imbus AG in Möhrendorf. Starting at 5:00 p.m., we invite you to join us for an evening focused on software testing, quality assurance, and current challenges in IT.

The program features three talks on topics that are currently on many teams’ minds: How can AI-generated code be made reliable? How can large language models (LLMs) be used in a structured and traceable way? And how can security testing evolve from a one-off check to a continuous process?

There will also be plenty of time for networking, professional discussion, drinks, and food in a relaxed atmosphere.

 

Three Talks – Three Perspectives on Modern Software Quality

AI Coding: Without Quality Gates, Enterprise Software Fails

 Gregor Biswanger

Gregor Biswanger is an expert in generative AI and a Microsoft MVP for Azure AI and Web App Development. As a consultant, trainer, author, and speaker, his areas of focus include modern software architecture, cloud technologies, and the productive use of AI.

Today, AI can generate code in a matter of seconds. But a quick prototype is far from being reliable enterprise software. Gregor Biswanger explains why AI agents need clear guidelines and what role spec-driven development, automated testing, and consistent quality gates play in this process.

 

Structured Use of AI in Public Administration: A Framework for Analyzing and Transforming Project Documents Using Large Language Models (LLMs)

 Dr. Mark Menzel

Dr. Mark Menzel has more than 25 years of experience in software quality and test management. As a test manager for the City of Munich, as well as a university lecturer and mentor, he is deeply involved in the use of AI in software testing.

How can extensive project documents be analyzed using LLMs without missing information simply being generatively filled in? Dr. Mark Menzel presents a framework developed by the City of Munich that systematically classifies information as substantiated, inferred, or not included, and integrates human validation directly into the process.

 

Resilience Through Testing: Why Security Testing Shouldn't Be a One-Time Project, but an Ongoing Process

Julian Lorz

A penetration test is always just a snapshot—the threat landscape, on the other hand, is constantly evolving. Julian Lorz demonstrates how principles from structured software testing can be combined with security expertise. The focus is on automated attack simulations, risk-based test prioritization, and the integration of security testing into CI/CD processes.

Julian Lorz has been with imbus AG for seven years and helps companies identify and assess security risks. As an experienced penetration tester, he analyzes systems, networks, web applications, and mobile apps, and works with clients to develop measures to improve IT security.

The Testing-Community meets in Möhrendorf

In addition to the presentations, there will, of course, be plenty of opportunity for personal interaction. Over food and drinks, there will be plenty of time to make new connections, catch up with familiar faces, and continue discussing the topics covered in the talks.

  • October 8, 2026, starting at 5:00 p.m.
  • imbus AG, Hauptstraße 8a, 91096 Möhrendorf
