Creating good, effective unit tests in .NET can be harder than it seems. In some cases, the code is designed so that isolating one component from another is easy. However, in most other cases, achieving this isolation is very difficult. First included in Visual Studio 2012, Microsoft Fakes helps you cross this gap.
Developers are always looking for ways to boost productivity. Effective debugging allows one to more quickly discover inaccuracies between our expectations and how the software actually behaves.
Hewlett-Packard’s Unified Functional Testing (UFT), formerly and better known as QuickTest Professional (QTP), has been one of the leading software testing tool in the market.
In theory everyone on an Agile team is responsible for software testing, but in practice this is rarely the case. Learn how to make quality a team sport in Scrum teams.
Self-testing code, or code that can evaluate its own health and tell you if it has problems, is the goal of many software teams who spend effort in testing. How can you achieve this goal? Learn the team practices, the types and amount of tests you need in your repertoire, and technical practices to help you get closer to it.
Over the years, Rob Sabourin has drawn important testing lessons from diverse sources including the great detectives, the Simpsons, Hollywood movies, comic book superheroes, and the hospital delivery room. Now Rob scores big with breakaway testing ideas from hockey, Canada’s national sport. Like star hockey players, testers develop skills and continuously adapt and perfect them.
Agile testing and test automation are almost mandatory for projects that demand high quality as well as short release cycles like Scrum. It acts as a safety net in order to protect existing functionality against bugs resulting from unintended side-effects of recent changes. Software developers “in the trenches” often automate their tests but don’t practice strict Test-Driven Development (TDD).
