QA: Challenge Accepted

QA: Challenge Accepted is an international, full-day single-track conference dedicated to professionals in software testing and quality assurance - enthusiasts, specialists, leaders, and everyone committed to delivering better software. Created by the QA community in Bulgaria, this conference has become one of the largest on the Balkans and continues to embody its core mission: by professionals, for professionals.

On October 24, 2026, we return to the John Atanasoff Forum in Sofia, Bulgaria, for the 12th edition of the event. This year, our theme celebrates the continued expansion, adaptability, and evolution of the QA field, reflecting the growing role of quality in an AI-driven, rapidly changing software world.

With inspiring talks, practical case studies, real-world examples, and plenty of opportunities to connect with fellow QA experts, QA: Challenge Accepted 2026 is the go-to place to learn, share, grow with the community, and be part of one of the strongest QA gatherings in Europe.
