Gitte Ottosen, Passionate about agile development and test within a mature process framework

Gitte Ottosen is a program test manager at Systematic in Denmark, a company that delivers mission critical system software to the defence and healthcare sectors. This places extreme demands on testing as a key instrument to guarantee highly reliable software of impeccable quality.

She is a self-confessed test evangelist who sermonizes the need for a structured and committed approach to test at every given opportunity.
