Tutorials and resources on how to apply unit testing in software testing
Test-Driven Development (TDD) can be difficult to practice as features increase in complexity. Testing is often skipped when developers feel uncomfortable with TDD or have not yet seen certain approaches in practice. This video describes specific techniques used in TDD which touch on: Integration testing with RSpec+Capybara, Model Associations and Data Validations, Asynchronous Jobs, Emails, 3rd Party Services, and JSON API endpoints.
It might seem strange that software developers still have trouble understanding. In this article, Jeff Knupp tries to describe what unit testing is, why it is useful and how you should perform unit testing for Python code.
This presentation incrementally demonstrates the concepts of Unit Testing, Test-Driven Development (TDD) and then Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) that enable us not just to create robust regression tests, but also clean and maintainable code.
Tests are supposed to save us money. How is it, then, that many times they become millstones around our necks, gradually morphing into fragile, breakable things that raise the cost of change? We write too many tests and we test the wrong kinds of things.
Software testing is a good thing, right? But how much should we test? What’s not enough? What’s too much? What should we test, and when? This talk looks at the many levels of testing, from the outermost UI tests to unit tests, what works well, what doesn’t work well.
AngularJS is an open-source JavaScript framework, maintained by Google, that assists with running single-page applications. This article written by Andy Shora discusses best practices to peform unit testing and integration testing with AngularJS.
This 50 pages report from the Software Engineering Institute on unit testing and analysis examines the techniques, assessment and management of unit analysis and testing.
