I want to talk about API testing today. But not really. When we’re testing APIs, we usually think about “how they work”. But in fact, we’re not really interested in the APIs. We’re interested in the features that they make… Continue Reading…

TDD is the best way I know to deliver working code, that is also maintainable and readable. Now with AI tools, we can generate everything. Tests and code. If we don’t like the design, we can change it with no… Continue Reading…

I’m running new online workshops in the upcoming months! Each workshop is 4 hours long, and dedicated to a specific topic. Each includes hands-on exercises, with me, on hand. The workshops are practical, and designed for not just learning and… Continue Reading…

I remember the clone war. Not that one, but the war on code duplication. Wasn’t too long ago, and still going strong. Everyone who’s written a bit of code, knows we shouldn’t duplicate code. It’s like the opening session of… Continue Reading…

Let’s talk about the Page Object Model, the pattern we adore in web automation. We all love patterns. Take for example, the Singleton, which I wrote about in the past, and its inherent evily-ness. While we can argue if Singletons… Continue Reading…

BDD (behavior-driven development) sounds great in theory, but how does it look like in practice? In this webinar, I show you. Starting with writing scenarios, adding the step definitions and the code behind it, until we have a full feature… Continue Reading…

Let’s talk about languages and clean tests. We use langauges all the time. I’m using one right now! And you can understand me, because you know the same one too! Amazing!! Ok, I know this seems trivial, but in automated… Continue Reading…

Let’s talk about knowledge, and where it goes, after you’ve walked away from the code. Sounds confusing, I know, but stay with me. Ok, let’s look at an example. Here’s my demo app. This is a registration app, as you… Continue Reading…

I work with many clients on improving their unit testing skills. Most of them approach me with the starting premise of “we don’t write unit tests at all”, or “not enough”. That may be true, but I usually explain that… Continue Reading…
