Last Thursday we hosted the tenth Dutch PowerShell User Group at Rabobank in Utrecht. It was another full day event starting at 9AM and finishing at 6PM. For this event, we had a diverse range of speakers and as a highlight we had Jakub Jareš visit our user group and giving two presentations on proper testing with Pester and Continuous Deployment for PowerShell.
Due to the enthusiasm of Ben van Zanten, Bartek Bielawski and Daniel Both we had three surprise speakers that added to our already full day of session. Our complete program of the day consisted of the following:

| 10:00 | 11:00 | André Kamman | Fighting SQL Server Configuration Drift with Dynamic Pester Tests |
| 13:00 | 14:00 | Jakub Jareš | Biggest mistakes when testing with Pester |
