STAREAST 2018 Integration and Functional Testing Using Dockerized Dependencies
Slideshow

To emulate production-like conditions that cannot be tested on the unit level, many integration and functional tests need a realistic environment. However, performing these tests in a production-like environment is fraught with problems—test data management issues, tests that are difficult to execute repeatedly, and network traffic that causes long-running test execution times. Instead of having to deal with these problems and others, Irene Dhong employs Docker to simulate dependencies. Learn how you can take advantage of Dockerized dependencies for quick test writing, reusability of common development code, and the ability to test early and often on a very low functional level. Irene describes how her development team is using Docker to implement more effective TDD and unit testing environments because Docker utilizes similar infrastructure both on the development and DevOps side. Join in to get Dockerized, too.

Magnifying glass Exposing False Confidence in Your Tests

Testing can't tell you what's wrong with your code. It can only show what is not wrong with it. And though we cannot possibly conceive everything that might be wrong, it's important to stray from the "happy path." We need test cases that present bogus inputs and assert that they raise exceptions. That's how we can replace our false confidence with true assurance.

The Impact of Quality-Driven Development

When the development and QA teams work independently of each other, there can be some duplication of test efforts—which results in wasted time. The solution: quality-driven development, with QA-implemented automation run in the development environment. This is the story of one team's venture into this new process.

Applying Test-Driven Development to Agile

Test-driven development (TDD) is fundamental to agile, but to most of us caught up in projects, there's never enough time to commit to it. Erick Fleming shows how to use TDD to improve product quality and time to delivery.
