QA Strategies for Testing Legacy Web AppsRainforest QA
Paul Miles, Software Development Manager at NPR, discusses QA strategies and tools his team uses to address the challenge of maintaining legacy products at NPR.
In this presentation, he covers:
- How to effectively strategize what types of tests to add to legacy software
- What cost-effective tools and testing strategies you can adopt in your organization
- Approaches about how to incorporate testing into your organization’s build pipelines
- How to foster testing centric culture in your organization
This presentation gives you the evidence as to why unit testing works and a process for how to bring it your team as soon as possible. There's a reason why the growth of unit testing, and automated unit testing in particular, has exploded over the past few years. It not only improves your code, it's faster than releasing code without tests. You'll learn: What, exactly, is a unit test?; The 7 reasons why managers love unit testing; and how to change mindset and processes to start unit testing now.

Security Implications for a DevOps TransformationDevOps.com
If your organization is undergoing a DevOps transformation, you’re probably thinking about where security fits in. All too often, we tack on security testing at the end of the delivery process, which means significant problems go undetected until development is complete. As we adopt DevOps principles and practices, we enable a natural solution to this problem: ensure that security experts are involved throughout the delivery process.
In this webinar, DevOps.com and Puppet defined a reference implementation of DevOps from the ground up, by illustrating how the software delivery process evolves at a hypothetical startup. Once we've laid a technical foundation for DevOps, we discussed the implications for security. We also discussed:
Benefits for and challenges to security during a DevOps transformation
How to craft a DevOps-ready security practice
Refinements of a standard DevOps workflow to address security needs
An overview of agile testing and how to incorporate it into an agile software development process.

Learn how Acceptance Test Driven Development (ATDD) provides the process for capturing detailed requirements as acceptance criteria and turn them into as test cases before development begins using Behavior Driven Development (BDD). The BDD approach and Gherkin format is the language used to create easy to understand and actionable scenarios that map from the functional level to the components and units. We will discuss the different approaches to TDD including a realistic approach leveraging BDD to a purest standpoint where TDD use the tests to drive the design of the application. Finally understand how the tools in Visual Studio and Team foundation Server to support BDD such as SpecFlow (Cucumber in .NET), Refactoring tools, and Test Cases in MTM.
One of the cornerstones in Agile development is fast feedback. For engineering, "fast" means "instantly" or "in 5 minutes", not "tomorrow" or "this week". Your engineering practices should ensure that you can answer yes to most of the following questions:
- Do we get all test results in less than 5 minutes after a commit?
- Is our code coverage more than 75% for both front-end and back-end?
- Can we start exploratory testing in less than 15 minutes after a commit?
- Do all our tests pass more than 90% of our commits?
This talk will give you practical advice on how to get to "yes, we get fast feedback".
Improving Performance in .NET Applicationsjasonbock
We all want to write fast code. But writing code that performs well doesn't come for free. Developers must be cognizant of what their code will do when it is executed, and what tools to use when you want to find the hot spots. In this session, we'll cover what a .NET developer needs to know to improve the performance of their applications.

xUnit and TDD: Why and How in Enterprise Software, August 2012Justin Gordon
“A comprehensive suite of JUnit tests is one of the most import aspects of a software project because it reduces bugs, facilitates adding new developers, and enables refactoring and performance tuning with confidence. Test-driven development (TDD) is the best way to build a suite of tests. And the Dependent Object Framework is the best way to test against database objects.” This presentation covers the benefits of TDD along with practical advice on how to implement TDD in complex projects.
In this presentation we explain how we use Watir, Ruby, Cumcumber and other supporting technologies to allow end to end testing in MyHeritage.

Understanding TDD - theory, practice, techniques and tips.Malinda Kapuruge
My talk at the Swinburne University on 09/10/2019. Presented to students as part of the series, Development Projects - Tools and Practices.
Level: Beginner
Despite the belief that a shared context and collaboration drives quality, too often, software testers and quality professionals struggle to find their place within today's integrated agile teams. This session is a practitioner’s view of testing and testing practices within an iterative/incremental development environment. We will begin with a discussion of some of the challenges of testing within an agile environment and delve into the guiding principles of Agile Testing and key enabling practices. Agile Testing necessitates a change in mindset, and it is as much, if not more, about behavior, as it is about skills and tooling, all of which will be explored.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

2. Agenda
Challenges we deal with today
•
Be Agile - Test Driven Development
•
Code coverage
•
Database can be Unit Tested!
•
Benefits of TDD
•
Summary
•
Q&A
•
3. Challenges we deal with today
Does our code do what we intended?
•
Documentation – is it updated?
•
Debug – again?
•
Change Request – What did I break?
•
4. Get Agile – Test Driven Development
Practices
Tools
Tools For Agility, Kent Beck
5. Unit Test Defined
• Code programmers write to exercise each
method in the design that run quickly
and help localize errors
– Isolates and tests a single operation
– Run in any environment
– Less time debugging
– Side affect is documentation!
6. Unit Tests Defined
• Tests are NOT unit tests when they…
– Talk to a database
– Communicate across the network
– Touch the file system
– Require human intervention (such as
modifying a *.config file, starting a console
app, etc.) to run
7. What is Test Driven Development?
• Despite the name, TDD focuses on
“Design” first, “Test” second
• Basic tenants are:
– Write a failing automated test before you write
any code
• Focus on interface and use case or problem
• Tests get written
• Just enough code to pass the test
– Remove duplication (refactor)
10. Code Coverage Defined
• Also known as “test coverage”
• It measures how thoroughly the
automated tests exercise the production
code, its source code
statements, branches, and expressions
11. What degree of code coverage
should you aim for?
• Answer: It depends
• Average code coverage is around 85%
• Biggest blocker to attain 100% - existing
code, auto generated code
• Aim for 100% while learning – you’ll
understand why 85% is nicer
19. TDD - Application Lifecycle
UAT
Testing & Bug Fixing
Development
Testing &
UAT
Development
Bug Fixing
Development and testing/bug fixing
take about the same amount of time
Development takes more time than
testing, and testing time is reduced
Overall lifecycle is shortened
20. Unit testing is a learned skill
that can only be honed with
experience.
Mock Objects
Interfaces
Better Factored Code
21. Starting Test Driven Development
Creating a cultural change is hard…
….. and it can be done.
22. Summary
• Development becomes more challenging.
• TDD is a great tool to overcome these
challenges
• Database can be Unit Tested!
• Development is Faster using TDD.
• VSTS is a great tool for UT and TDD.
