On Wednesday 11 November 2026, MSTB was at the Faculty of Information and Communication Technology (FTMK), Universiti Teknikal Malaysia Melaka (UTeM), for the opening day of MySEC 2026, the 12th Malaysian Software Engineering Conference. MSTB supported the conference as a Bronze Sponsor and exhibitor.

MySEC has run since 2005. This year’s edition ran over two days, 11 and 12 November, under the theme “Empowering Intelligent Software Engineering for a Sustainable Digital Future”. FTMK organised it through its Innovative Software System and Services Group (IS3), with Sultan Kudarat State University and the Malaysian Software Engineering Interest Group (MySEIG) as co-organisers and the IEEE Computer Society Malaysia Chapter as technical co-sponsor. Two of the keynotes spoke straight to testing: one on test case prioritisation, the other on AI-driven quality assurance.

MSTB’s booth set out the routes to ISTQB, IREB and TMMi certification. Boards covered the AI testing certifications CT-AI and CT-GenAI, IREB certification and the MSTB Certification Atlas, and every brochure was a QR scan away.

Software engineering research and software testing practice need each other. A conference like MySEC is where the two meet, which is why MSTB was there.

UTeM presented MSTB with a certificate of appreciation for its sponsorship and support of the conference, signed by the university’s Vice Chancellor.
