OW2 and the European project ReachOut invite developers to evaluate as many innovative software as they wish
and share their impressions, with more incentives until June 13, 2021.
Paris, April 12th, 2021 – OW2, the international community dedicated to developing and promoting a code base of open source software for corporate information systems, invites beta testers to explore new and innovative software in the ReachOut test{fest} .
In return for their efforts, they will be able to interact with designers and receive monetary rewards of up to €30, €60 or €90 per evaluation, a Software Ranger certificate, a nomination to the ReachOut Hall of Fame and, for one of them, a ReachOut Special Award presented at OW2con'21, the next annual OW2 conference to be held, online, on 23 and 24 June 2021.
To participate remotely in the ReachOut test{fest} , which runs from 13 April to 13 June 2021, testers must follow the instructions provided on the contest webpage: https://l.ow2.org/testfest
The profile of participants and their system requirements vary according to the test campaigns offered, from a simple smartphone business user to a beginner or advanced developer, to the professional tester. Anyone with a keen interest in digital innovation can take part, simply by following the steps offered online and then completing a full evaluation form about the user experience, features in place, or encountered difficulties.
After June 13th 2021, the ReachOut test{fest} will be over, but testers will still be able to participate in active campaigns, interact with designers, receive rewards for their efforts and enter a prize draw for a special ReachOut prize awarded at the end of 2021.
