Automatic Testing of documentation

Maintaining up-to-date documentation can be hard. When the behaviour of a software differs from the documented behaviour, users might lose trust in the documentation. This problem is equally important, if not more, for system documentation.

In this session we would like to collect experiences and cases, to discuss the tooling and practices available to mitigate this problem.

We also aim at working concretely on documentation that has maintenance issues, to create systems that can spot differences between the real and the documented behaviour, share our experiences and discuss similarities and divergencies in our approaches, to try and design, or even create, reusable tools.
