Feature branching a release day painkiller
Download as PPTX, PDF1 like340 views
Feature branching allows developers to work on user stories or features independently in separate branches without blocking the main trunk. This prevents an unstable trunk and allows incomplete stories to be finished after a release by merging the feature branches later. Developers can work independently in branches and merge completed features into the trunk for a release without blocking other work.

1) The document discusses models of meme popularity using branching process theory. It presents Simon's model of preferential attachment as a branching process and extends this to models with memory effects.
2) It then introduces a Markovian model of meme spreading on Twitter where nodes randomly spread memes according to their out-degree distribution. This competitive process leads to broad popularity distributions that depend on network structure.
3) The Twitter model is solved using a branching process approach to obtain equations for the mean popularity over time and the full popularity distribution as a function of meme age.04 Kimmel, Marek

Git Branching ModelLemi Orhan Ergin

Git branching model for efficient development.
(1) Main branches like master and development are used for new features and releases. (2) Supporting branches like bugfix and feature branches have limited lifespans. (3) The workflow handles features, bugs, and releases across environments while maintaining a clean history. Rebasing is preferred over merging for cleaner histories when working locally, while merging integrates changes for public branches.Test Data Builder Pattern
Test Data Builder PatternAlan Parkinson

Managing data for end to end Tests are always difficult. To keep tests isolated many people will drop and repopulate the database before every test execution. The Test Data Builder Pattern provides an alternative to this anti-pattern.Testing requirements with BDD
Testing requirements with BDDAlan Parkinson
油
The document discusses using examples and behavior-driven development (BDD) to test requirements. Examples help illustrate acceptance criteria for a user story in specific situations and from different perspectives. Asking questions about examples can help discover missing requirements or edge cases. Both examples and acceptance criteria can inform each other. BDD focuses on describing desired behavior rather than specific test implementation steps. This makes tests more resilient to changes and focuses on "how it should behave" rather than "how to test it."Baking in the cloud with packer and puppet

Pull requests and testers can be friendsAlan Parkinson
油
This is a short preview of a talk I will giving at Agile Testing Days 2014
The rise of Distributed Version Control Systems with good merge support has rehabilitated Feature Branches with many Open Source projects (OSS) receiving contributions as Pull Requests. Feature Branching is a technique where developers do all their changes separate from the mainline of code. Next they open a Pull Request to have their code merged into the mainline after being peer reviewed.
This OSS popularity for Pull requests with Git and Mercurial has been transferring to commercial projects, with many teams now adopting it internally. SCM is seen as a Developer centric domain but testers have a lot to gain. This presentation will cover an introduction to Pull Requests and demonstrate how to identify key information that can be used to as inputs to different testing techniques.
While not a direct substitute for pairing with a developer, pull requests represent an opportunity to review the code, automated testing and learn from the developers by asking questions. As each Pull Request represents a single User Story this information can help limit the scope of Exploratory based testing sessions and be utilized to further understand the risk of the changes to the system.What is Continuous Delivery?

Why we used Feature BranchingAlan Parkinson
油
The document discusses why the author's company switched to using feature branching for their development workflow. Key reasons included reducing risks from untested code in production due to improperly configured feature toggles, which led to increased technical support costs. Feature branching provides a safer approach by having each new feature or change developed on a dedicated branch, with pull requests and testing occurring before code is merged to master. This allows for incremental changes to be made and tested independently, reducing risks compared to batching many changes together without proper testing.Test automation with Cucumber-JVM
Test automation with Cucumber-JVMAlan Parkinson
油
The document summarizes a presentation on test automation with Cucumber-JVM. Cucumber allows writing tests in plain text and executing them as automated tests. It supports behavior driven development by writing specifications in a natural language format. Cucumber tests can be written in various programming languages like Java, Ruby, and executed using JUnit. It uses regular expressions and annotations to map steps in feature files to code implementations.A Quick overview of Behaviour Driven Development (BDD)

Many people believe Behaviour Driven Development (BDD) is about Test Automation. It's true that BDD and ATDD tools such as Cucumber and SpecFlow are often used in Test Automation however, that is only the tip of the proverbial iceberg. This is a rather narrow viewpoint which completely misses the benefits brought about by the hugely improved requirements and time saved as well as the cost savings brought about by these changes in workflow and development methodology.

The document discusses running JavaScript unit tests across browsers using Karma and Selenium. Karma is a test runner that can connect to remote Selenium WebDriver instances for cross-browser testing. It provides code coverage and fast feedback. Using Karma and unit tests improves code coverage and JavaScript/DOM compatibility testing while reusing existing Selenium infrastructure, as unit tests are much faster to run than traditional functional tests across browsers.Creating data with the test data builder pattern

Examples are given of using builders in step definitions to create test data for Cucumber scenarios.Acceptance test styles - Imperative vs Declarative
Acceptance test styles - Imperative vs DeclarativeAlan Parkinson

The document discusses two styles of acceptance test writing: imperative vs declarative. The imperative examples show test steps as commands while the declarative examples describe the expected outcomes. The summary recommends the declarative style as it avoids brittle tests and is more readable for business stakeholders. It also advises removing unnecessary UI details, using default values, and overriding defaults when needed.Continuous Deployment Pipeline with maven

It also provides solutions to issues Maven causes, such as rebuilding artifacts unnecessarily and an inability to simulate release versions, through the use of unique versioning and the Versions plugin. Continuous deployment is achieved by running tests and deploying builds from separate modules after each commit.EaseUS Partition Master Crack 2025 + Serial Key
