Our approach Javascript is a first class language create abstracKons: business logic presentaKon logic integraKons …but not limited to a specific paVern !! Keep your presentaKon logic class as skinny as possible in order to express intents Favour interacKon tests over integraKon tests

Ques3ons ?
Thank You ! Brian Blignaut
