On July 14, LogiGear VN and MRD organized a joint press conference to announce the event, "Vietnam International Software Testing & Automation Conference (VISTACON) 2011"

As expected, the conference will take place for two days on December 6 and 7 in HCMC. The content of the conference will focus on the following topics: "Test Automation;  Test Strategy, Approach, Methods and Techniques, not including Agile; Testing in Agile Development; Cross-cultural Business, and Outsourcing". In addition, VISTACON 2011 also organizes other activities such as "Bug Hunting" and Photo contest.

According to the organizers, the ratio of developers to tester is 3:1 by international standards and sometimes 1:1 within special projects. In Vietnam, that ratio is roughly 5:1.

Last time, LogiGear has worked with Universities and human resources training centers for serving the industy. Internal training in Vietnam LogiGear have trainned  each STT class averaging 20 people and offer them a stable position upon graduation. LogiGear has also cooperated with the Information Technology Center of University of Science HCMC and has taught seven courses with over 150 students. In addition, LogiGear coordinates with the University of Technology, HCMC as well. However, according to LogiGear, the long-term human resources of software testing in Viet Nam will still lag behind the demands..
