Test Driven Development in AEM/CQ5
- 1. TDD in CQ5/AEM Sagar Sane
- 2. What’s on the plate? ● What is Test driven development (TDD)? ● Why TDD / BDD? ● CQ backend and Spock testing framework ● Live code
- 3. Not on the plate ● Advanced testing techniques ○ Features of Spock Framework ● Much about testing your UI / JS
- 4. ● Software Consultant II / Tech lead ● WEM Consultant ○ Backend development ○ Comfortable with Java (/JSP) and Groovy ● I don’t dislike front-end development :-) About me
- 5. I became a programmer because of the ‘science’ in programming, but, I remained a programmer because of the ‘art’ in programming. I believe..
- 6. Some people have very strong opinions about this...
- 7. No, REALLY!
- 8. Test Driven Development ● Write Test First (extreme programming) ○ Technical meaning ○ Design your code around the tests ● Write a lot of tests ○ Milder approach
- 9. What is a Unit Test in CQ/AEM?
- 10. Benefits of Testing ● Find bugs early ● Make it easy for a new person on your project ○ Read the tests if you don’t understand the code ● Improve code quality
- 11. Benefits of Testing ● Helps during code re-factoring ● A good test is worth a thousand comments ● Executable documentation
- 12. BDD ● Behavior Driven Development ● Writing tests from the customer’s / stakeholder’s point of view ● It really is TDD done well! ● More expressive than TDD
- 13. //Variables expected, v1, v2, .. //Execute feature actual = System.executeFeature(v1, v2, ..) //The system gives output as expected assert actual == expected
- 15. CQ/AEM and Spock ● What is Spock Framework? [ link ] ● Why is it awesome? [ link ] [ link ] ○ Is beautiful ● It can be used to test your CQ/AEM backend!
- 16. A basic Spock Feature //Spock ‘feature’ def "My component should just work"() { given: final variables = [ //initial conditions ] final expected = new MyComponent(...) when: final actual = MyComponent.create(variables) then: actual == expected }
- 17. Time for some real code... What ‘new’ will we see? ● Mocks in spock ● setupSpec(), cleanupSpec() ● @Ignore(), @Shared
- 18. What all can you do? ● Unit tests for servlets, services ● Integration tests ● Functional tests for your rest APIs ● Even UI tests! (with Geb)
- 19. What all can you do? Test Automation
- 20. Where to go from here? ● Don’t have to start big ● Add tests to the code that is important, needs change ● Start new implementations with TDD
- 21. The art of programming!
- 22. Thank you!
