3. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM Testing to almost avoid doubting This could have been called
4. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM Testing for a little less doubting This should have been called
5. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM Disclaimer Opinions are my own they sometimes change I’m interested by yours !
6. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM This is not a « silver bullet »
7. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM What is a good test anyway ?
8. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM Tests pyramid Units Integration E2E Cost Execution time Precision
9. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM My dream test 🎯 fails only when it should 🧪 is reproductible ⏩ runs quickly 💡is easy to understand
10. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM Test pyramid Units Integration E2E 🧪 🧪 🧪 ⏩ ⏩ ⏩ 🧪 ⏩ 🧪 🧪 🧪 ⏩ ⏩ Not reproductible
11. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM Unit tests shortcomings 🪢 Tighten coupling with code structure ⛓ Make refactoring harder 🧩 Testing pieces of code, not application features 😨 I got little faith in unit tests
12. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM Testing diamong Integration E2E Units
13. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM Integration tests : my guidelines 🧑💻 Focus on features / user journey 📦 Test in black box mode 🍾 Mock only what’s strictly necessary
14. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM And concretly ?
15. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM Test containers Containers orchestrated by your tests 🪩 Java, node, python, go, rust, … 🪞 « ISO prod » technical environnement
16. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM Wiremock Stubs for HTTP cakks 🍾 Fine grain stubbing ⚙ Standalone server ✅ Call check Alternatives oMock-server (node) oMock Service Worker (frontend)
17. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM Cypress Fast, easy and reliable tes:ng for anything that runs in a browser. 🎇 An UI that allows to clearly visualise all test steps 🧰 naviga9on, stubbing, and async asser9on features 🔎 4 supported browsers
18. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM Testing library Accessibility oriented library

22. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM API API Application Frontend Application API DOM
23. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM Pros 💥 Failure : behaviour has changed 🔧 Refactoring resilient ✅ Test the whole stack (SQL queries, …) 💡 Allow to imagine features from user perspective
24. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM Pain points 🛠 Stubbs are hard to maintain 🐌 Things can get slow 🤯 Test code may become hard to read
25. SLIDESMANIA.COM Total decoupling Reboot / complete reset between tests It’s slow !!! 2 main causes 🚚 Technical elements instantation 📑 Functionnal setup String coupling Context is kept between tests ⚠ Dependant of execution order Coupling « happy medium » Programmatic cleaning Common setup for a whole test suite
26. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM My tests are too complicated ! 🔧 Extract « test primitives »
27. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM My tests are too complicated ! 🔧 Extract « test primiBves » 🛠 FuncBonnal builders
28. SLIDESMANIA.COM SLIDESMANIA.COM My tests are too complicated ! 🔧 Extract « test primiBves » 🛠 FuncBonnal builders 🚆Focus on one target in each test
