Testing software is awful: Here is how we can fix it

Let's be honest: testing software is awful.
According to GitHub, developers spend the same amount of time writing tests as they do writing new code (and an equal amount of time waiting for build and test cycles). Between writing tests and waiting for tests, who has time or strength to then troubleshoot a test failure?
Join this open discussion with Java Champions Trisha Gee and Brian Demers for an in-depth conversation about testing.
We'll talk about top challenges developers have to overcome, like regularly dealing with long test cycles, slow and frustrating troubleshooting, a "forever war" with flaky tests, the upcoming impact of AI-generated tests on projects, and the hit to developer morale and productivity around all of this.
- Problems with testing software (so many)
- Getting to the root cause of failures
- Can best practices even help?
