The document is an agenda for a presentation on JavaScript testing. The summary includes: 1) The presentation covers JavaScript testing fundamentals including the importance of testing, different testing frameworks, unit vs integration testing, and tools to assist with testing. 2) Testing JavaScript applications is important because JavaScript is widely used but many developers do not fully understand it. Writing tests encourages writing code in a testable way and prevents bugs. 3) The presentation concludes by thanking the audience and providing contact details for the presenter.

- 1. JavaScript Testing— Technically not a number… Justin Obney, Front-End Dev
- 2. Gone are the days of old
- 3. Any application that can be written in JavaScript, will be written in JavaScript -- Atwood’s Law JS is everywhere
- 4. That no one thinks they need to actually learn how it works. Looks like C or Java… How hard could it be? JavaScript is so approachable
- 5. ? The old way ? Frameworks ? The lies ? Where to start ? Tooling ? Who knows? The Agenda
- 6. “Whenever you are tempted to type something into a print statement or a debugger expression, write it as a test instead.” —Martin Fowler When do I write a test?
- 8. ?A unit test is code that executes part of your production code with an expectation on the result. ?Unit vs. Integration ?Mocking & Stubbing ?Vocabulary
- 9. But testing is 丑补谤诲…
- 10. But the DOM
- 11. Tooling TEST’EM
- 12. I see you are on a Mac… But what about Windows?
- 13. But does it scale?
- 14. In closing
Editor's Notes
- Who am I Envoc .Net beginning now they pay me to write JavaScript The web is changing rapidly The good old days WEB FORMS: post a form let the server build 1/2 MB or html and then send it back to the client to change a radio button … Cue magic
- Some of you may still live there... Get out now… JavaScript on rise
- Atwood’s Law CodingHorror StackOverflow it runs everywhere The server Mobile apps TVs? PS4? Heard of the web.. it is here to stay.
- 0.1 + 0.2
- console.log has the nasty risk of introducing bugs all on its own. enter dev tools (`debugger;`)
- QUnit older, more support mocha can drop in any* assertion library jasmine headless browser support built in spies & mocks
- Vocabulary A unit test is code that executes part of your production code with an expectation on the result. Unit vs integration unit - should be able to trust they should all be green integration - sometimes fail due to circumstance/environment Mocking and stubbing Mocks - you expect to assert against value (1 per test) Stubs - fake calls out. can have many
- ----- Meeting Notes (4/8/14 20:43) ----- Gmail, Facebook, Twitter, Azure Management Portal Models, Controllers, Services, Smart Caching, DI -- All things that can live in the client now
- ----- Meeting Notes (4/8/14 20:48) ----- Most of the tooling you will find will run on NodeJS Node has made Windows a first class citizen. You can integrate it into most of your existing CI servers. The only thing stopping you is you.
- This is not library code. There is very little DOM manipulation going on here (SPA). This is application logic.
