Over the years, Rob Sabourin has drawn important testing lessons from diverse sources including the great detectives, the Simpsons, Hollywood movies, comic book superheroes, and the hospital delivery room. Now Rob scores big with breakaway testing ideas from hockey, Canada’s national sport. Like star hockey players, testers develop skills and continuously adapt and perfect them.
Agile testing and test automation are almost mandatory for projects that demand high quality as well as short release cycles like Scrum. It acts as a safety net in order to protect existing functionality against bugs resulting from unintended side-effects of recent changes. Software developers “in the trenches” often automate their tests but don’t practice strict Test-Driven Development (TDD).
Facebook is released twice a day, and keeping up this pace is at the heart of its culture. With this release pace, automated testing with Selenium is crucial to making sure everything works before being released.
With a growing number of instrumented tools in the market, Mobile End-to-End Testing (MOET) uses a non-instrumentation approach, and extensive use of design patterns. MOET’s mobile device libraries are pluggable open-sourced components and only one language and test harness is needed for testing on diverse mobile platforms.
In this presentation, Michael Bolton explains how he uses interdisciplinary and exploratory methods to make sense of both the products we test and software testing itself. He explains how anthropology, which describes cultures and artifacts, can guide our testing; how investigative journalism can show us how to build a compelling testing story; and how sociology can help us understand how people interact with their tools.
This talk discusses common pitfalls in writing unreadable, unmaintainable unit tests in JavaScript. Some simple rules can keep you from tearing your hair out in anger three months from now, when things need to change.
