PHPUnit is a unit testing software framework for PHP. It provides both a framework that makes writing unit tests easy as well as the functionality to easily run the tests and analyze their results. This video shows you how to build a relatively simple class, using TDD techniques. It also discusses various PHPUnit methods and explains how to create mock objects.
Most Ruby programmers spend significant time writing, maintaining and troubleshooting automated tests. While recent discussions in the Ruby community have focused on whether we’re writing too few or too many tests, this talk looks at how we can write “sensible” tests that allow our applications to deliver the most possible value with the least amount of development time and effort.
Replace any .NET method with your own delegate! “Fakes” is a new framework in Visual Studio 11 for test stubs and detours in .NET. Fakes may be used to detour any .NET method, even in tough situations like static methods, non-virtual methods, private methods, constructors, etc… If you’ve been a user of Moles, Fakes is a lot like Moles but different so come and learn about the changes coming ahead too.
Learn the pros and cons of typical ways that teams manage exploratory testing, from stealth work and bug hunts through to spread bets and timeboxing. This video also explores some possible alternatives, taking inspiration from machine learning, lean approaches and from other industries who find value in exploration.
Many JavaScript implementations do not warn against questionable coding practices which is a nightmare when you actually want to write quality, maintainable code. That’s where JavaScript Lint comes in. With JavaScript Lint, you can check all your JavaScript source code for common mistakes without actually running the script or opening the web page. This video takes a concise look at what Lint is, how to use it, and how to incorporate it into your automated build.
Elisabeth Hendrickson shares her experiences and lessons learned about how testers can play well and succeed on Extreme Programming (XP) teams. One of the things testers often notice about XP is that there is no defined role for testers on the team. Yet XP teams describe themselves as “test infected”. They practice Test-Driven Development (TDD), writing executable unit tests before writing the code to be tested. Many teams practice Acceptance Test-Driven Development (ATDD), writing executable acceptance tests before implementing a feature. They use continuous integration to give them rapid feedback about the effects of changes. They practice pair programming, a technique that results in all code being peer reviewed before it’s checked in. In short, XP teams test continuously from the very first moment of any given project. You could even call them “test obsessed”.
The new Visual Studio 2012 tries to improve the developer unit testing experience, particularly for agile teams. The entire unit testing framework has been made extensible, which will allow you to use testing frameworks such as xUnit.net and NUnit in addition to the unit testing framework built into Visual Studio. This talk presents the history of unit testing in Visual Studio and then takes you through the product, showing off the new unit testing features.
