Watch the highlight video:

On Saturday 22 August 2026, ten university teams came to Cinema MMU in Cyberjaya for the finals of the TDC 2.0 Over-the-Weekend Challenge, organised by MSTB and judged by industry practitioners. Each team had 25 minutes to present its test designs, then answered the judges’ questions on the choices behind them.

The results

The top three teams were announced and honoured on the SOFTECAsia 2026 stage at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre on 14 September:

• Champion: Shift 2 T.Left (UiTM Shah Alam)
• Runner Up 1: TestXcel (Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia)
• Runner Up 2: Young & Broke (Sunway University)

Finals day

Teams arrived from 7.45am. Assoc. Prof. Dr. Chua Fang Fang, Dean of the Faculty of Computing and Informatics, Multimedia University, welcomed everyone to MMU, and Puan Azizah Hamzah, Director of MSTB, opened the challenge before the draw set the presentation order.

The presentations

One by one, the teams took the stage to walk the judges through their work: how they read the requirements, what they chose to test, and why.

Knowledge sharing and the medal ceremony

After the final presentation, chief judge Amiruddin Jaafar Sidek led a knowledge sharing session on what the judges had been looking for in the teams’ work. Our guest of honour, YBhg. Datuk Ts. Dr. Mohd Nor Azman bin Hassan, Deputy Secretary-General (Management and Development), Ministry of Higher Education (MoHE), then delivered the closing remarks and presented a medal to every participant, and the day ended with a group photo on the cinema stage.

Congratulations to every team that reached the finals. Thank you to Datuk and to the Ministry of Higher Education, TDC 2.0’s Strategic Partner; to Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia and Multimedia University, our Supporters, and to MMU for hosting the finals; and to the judges, lecturers and everyone who made the day possible. The next edition of TDC will be announced.
