- 10. @gil_zilberfeld BENEFITS Same tools Better coverage Less debugging Better design Think before your code! You can also split your content ISSUES Requires discipline Works better for greenfield projects Takes time to get to great results The light side vs the dark side
- 11. @gil_zilberfeld Plan ahead Define boundaries Small steps Smallest amount of code to pass the test JUST to pass the test Focus on the current test Ask questions Discipline, discipline, discipline! You can also split your contentYoda says…
- 12. @gil_zilberfeld Not every project is lightsaber size
- 13. @gil_zilberfeld COMPONENTS Navigation Shields Environment Weapons Energy TIE Fighters You can also split your content ACCEPTANCE Divide and conquer Interaction and boundaries Testing strategy BDD Our Death Star is composed of smaller things
- 14. @gil_zilberfeld Summary ◉ Try it! ◉ In a team ◉ How about BDD? ◉ And remember…
- 15. @gil_zilberfeld A death star with no tests is very dangerous!
