Writing tests is hard. Fixing them is harder.
Testing is a Good Thing, right? Especially automated testing. But the phrase 'good things come to those who wait' doesn't appeal to a busy developer. When a test starts failing, dropping everything to find and fix the problem can be a frustrating experience.
In this webinar, Trisha Gee will cover several techniques for troubleshooting tests and go through some of the information you need to identify problems. She will also rant about flaky tests, and how toxic they are to developer productivity. Then she'll share some tips on writing tests, with an eye to making troubleshooting and debugging easier. Finally, she'll do a live coding demonstration and offer up some 'best practices'. Oh, and AI & machine learning will be mentioned at some point.
- Why is it hard to troubleshoot tests?
- What steps should you take to fix a test?
- Why are flaky tests toxic?
- How can you write tests that are easier to fix?
