Testing and beyond at startups
Download as PPT, PDF0 likes828 views
The document discusses testing practices at startups. It notes that startups often don't test due to time and cost constraints. This can lead to issues in production and higher risks. The author's company uses behavior-driven development (BDD) to write automated tests alongside development which helps documentation and catches errors earlier. They employ cross-browser testing, track test coverage, and have an automation suite to help reduce risks compared to not testing.

- 22. Conventional project BDD project team team developers and testers Only testers write the (sometimes product managers) automation tests together own the tests need to document test cases BDD features are the test separately documentation updating test cases and BDD features serve the purpose requirements with ever changing of requirements as tests are scope is a huge task written in business language helps both developers and hiring and on boarding is difficult testers in understanding functionality PROPRIETARY
- 23. we do daily releases less issues in production we use developer machines for testing we don’t have time to write code without tests we have been writing tests since day one and thats our strength PROPRIETARY
- 24. Build flakiness Hiring challenges UI tests PROPRIETARY
