This means that when a page loads, the object that I am looking for might not necessarily have appeared yet. In many instances the element may only be added to the DOM after an amount of time by the use of some JavaScript. read more...

Book review: The Art of Unit Testing(jclaes.blogspot.com)

submitted by JefClaes(650) 7 months, 20 days ago

What defines a good unit test, and how does a unit test differ from an integration test? In the second part of the book, he demonstrates the use of two core unit testing techniques: stubs and mocks. After showing y... read more...

Test-Driven Development Is Not Slower(trycatchfail.com)

submitted by Matt_TCF(946) 10 months, 10 days ago

Hello, my name is Matt Honeycutt, and I am addicted to Test Driven Development. I’ve been “using” for about 5 years now.

Now I’m using all the time. I use at work. I use at home. I just can’t stop. People don’t really understand the risks. There’s this myth that TDD is slower, that it makes you less productive, but that’s so not true. Read on, and I’ll help you understand why. read more...
