Automated javascript testing

RSouthern

We can all agree testing our awesome projects is a necessity. However, most developers run into many issues including: 

  • Easy test-driven development processes are very rare.
  • Most testing environment setups are cumbersome and take quite a while to setup.
  • Console based testing doesn't give much incite on why a test failed.
  • Most tests we write are fragile and will fail randomly.
  • Debugging failed test takes additional time due to indirect error messages.

In this session, we will introduce an awesome JavaScript testing tool, Cypress.io, which solves many of the issues above. You'll leave this session ready (and excited) to test all your projects!
