MOBILE APP DEVELOPMENT Test-Driven Development
@bridgeutopia @katgironpe Katherine G. Pe www.blog.bridgeutopiaweb.com
THE OBVIOUS
It is absolutely required to test on a device.
iOS development requires an iPod Touch/ iPhone/iPad A Mac/ Hackintosh
iOS Developer Program
CHOICES
NOT FREE FREE MobiRuby
ATM, RUBY GEMS WILL NOT WORK WITH
What I have tried so far
Corona SDK Makes you focus on app monetization
Corona SDK for iOS costs $199/ year
Corona SDK Advantages +1
It’s great for beginners
None
Corona SDK uses Fast, simple, efficient
brew install lua Strings >print(“Welcome to Baguio”) >print(“Welcome\n\to\nBaguio”) >print(string.len(“Welcome to
Baguio”)) >greeting = “Welcome to Baguio” >print(string.gsub(greeting, “Baguio”, “BAGUIO”))
brew install lua Tables Arrays >t = {"Baguio", "Bulacan", "Tarlac",
"Manila"} >for i,v in ipairs(t) do print(i,v) end Dictionaries >t = {baguio=”2600”, bulacan=”3017”} >for k,v in pairs(t) do print(k,v) end
brew install lua Tables Tables within a table >t =
{ {baguio=”2600”, bulacan=”3017”}, {mars=”24600”, moon=”30170”} } >print(t[1]["baguio"]) Mixed data types including functions >local function hi() >print(“Hello World”) >end >local t = {1, 2, 3, hi, true} = { 100, 100, helloWorld, true }
Corona SDK Disadvantages -1
It’s NOT open source & there’s not much support for
existing open source Lua projects
which makes this Corona SDK alternative interesting:
Xcode simulator is still better.
Test-Driven Development
Code without tests A promise of code
Unit Tests Functional Tests Integration Tests Automated On-Device Testing
lua-TestMore
lua-TestMore require('More') plan(2) local someValue = 1 local test_count =
0 is(someValue, 1, "someValue should be equal to 1") test_count = test_count + 1 isnt(someValue, nil) test_count = test_count + 1 done_testing(test_count)
It’s still best to use Objective-C
Because of Community Support
What TDD/BDD frameworks are worth trying out?
If you are a Rubyist, you probably know
For mobile app developers who like Cucumber: Calabash www.github.com/calabash
Other TDD/ BDD frameworks: Specta www.github.com/petejkim/specta KIF www.github.com/square/KIF
