Test-Driven Development (TDD) can be difficult to practice as features increase in complexity. Testing is often skipped when developers feel uncomfortable with TDD or have not yet seen certain approaches in practice. This video describes specific techniques used in TDD which touch on: Integration testing with RSpec+Capybara, Model Associations and Data Validations, Asynchronous Jobs, Emails, 3rd Party Services, and JSON API endpoints.
Agile software development approaches encourage a collaborative setting in software development projects. Software developments and software testers and quality assurance people have to create a better context for working together. This article discusses how programmers can improve their relationships with the software quality assurance people.
It might seem strange that software developers still have trouble understanding. In this article, Jeff Knupp tries to describe what unit testing is, why it is useful and how you should perform unit testing for Python code.
Would you like to run your selenium scripts against multiple browsers and multiple server platforms continuously at night and report status on the web? Today’s software development often means continuous integration and testing using open-source tools such as Selenium.
Can you use the number of test cases as a metric? In this blog post, James Christie discusses this topic and the usefulness of counting test cases.
A recent survey conducted by the Methods & Tools software development magazine asked who was performing the functional testing in the IT department: specialized testers, software developers or end-users. Functional testing looks for differences between the initial end-users’ requirements and their actual implementation in the software application.
This presentation incrementally demonstrates the concepts of Unit Testing, Test-Driven Development (TDD) and then Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) that enable us not just to create robust regression tests, but also clean and maintainable code.
