      <title>Quality Assurance Metrics for Modern Software Engineering (24 Sep 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p class="isSelectedEnd"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;The Chicago Quality Assurance Association (CQAA) is pleased to invite you to our upcoming community session:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="isSelectedEnd"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Title: Quality Assurance Metrics for Modern Software Engineering&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Date: September 24th&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Time: 12:00 PM CST&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Speaker: David Bialek, AVP of Quality Assurance Engineering, Credit One Bank&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="isSelectedEnd"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;In this session, David will share a practical approach to building and applying QA metrics that help teams make defects more visible, identify root causes, improve resolution, and clearly demonstrate the value of quality engineering to leadership.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="isSelectedEnd"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;We will also explore &lt;strong&gt;AI quality metrics&lt;/strong&gt; and how QA organizations can evolve their measurement practices as AI becomes a larger part of software development and testing.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="isSelectedEnd"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Key takeaways include:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul data-spread="false"&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Metrics you can begin using immediately&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Root cause analysis and defect resolution practices&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Effective ways to report QA value to management&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;Practical approaches to metric management&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;AI quality metrics for the modern QA organization&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p class="isSelectedEnd"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;David brings extensive QA leadership experience across financial services, software, and consulting, and we are excited to have him share his experience with the CQAA community.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
