Welcome to the 43rd issue!

As promised last week, I'm continuing to feature more gems that some of you submitted.

So today I'd like to highlight TestingTV.

It's a collection of hundreds of videos from software testing conferences, webinars, courses and others that have been regularly stored on that site since 2008.

Although the new videos are added at a once-per-month rate, it's still a great source of knowledge, especially thanks to its search functionality.

Happy watching!
