ICSE 2026
Sun 12 - Sat 18 April 2026 Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Quantum Software Engineering (QSE) is an emerging software engineering paradigm that focuses on developing cost-effective quantum software for quantum computers. It is a relatively new area of research, with current studies primarily aimed at designing, developing, testing, and maintaining quantum software. Interest in QSE has been steadily increasing; thus, introducing this topic to the ICSE conference audience will further engage young researchers, senior researchers, and practitioners interested in this area. This technical briefing will begin with an introduction to quantum computing, followed by an overview of QSE. It will then explore QSE in detail from various perspectives, including quantum software requirements engineering, modeling, coding, testing, and debugging. Overall, this technical briefing aims to provide the audience with a comprehensive overview of the current state of QSE as well as future research directions.
