WebDriver/2014-TPAC-F2F

The Browser Testing and Tools Working Group will meet at October 30-31 October at TPAC in Santa Clara, CA.

Observers are very welcome to attend our group meeting. If any observers are interested in participating in the work on the test suite or joining the group, we will happily assist with this.

The meeting will be minuted to the #testing IRC channel. All participants and observers are encouraged to join this channel in advance.

Agenda

The agenda will align with the overall TPAC agenda for group meetings:
