In part 1 we have covered antipatterns related to stubbing and problem with implementation details that are a overcomplicated just for the sake of being super easy to tests. In second part we are going to focus more on tests themselves.
When preparing our test suite we might be tempted to make some shortcuts that will render our tests less readable, comprehensible or will significantly decrease the flexibility of further implementation. Below, I try to list some of the most commonly seen techniques we should avoid to keep our test suite healthy.
ReactJS is a JavaScript library created by Facebook to tackle the User Interface needs for high performance and dynamic. The JavaScript library was released in 2011 bringing a fresh outlook on rendering pages, which resulted in a dynamic and responsive user input.
It is hard to underestimate a value and importance of automated tests. Creating confidence about if the code works the right way and thus enabling safe refactoring is just one thing. Another one is that test suite can act as a way to document behavior and also, especially when approached the BDD way, can drive the code design and architecture.
Query Objects (also referred to as queries) is another pattern that helps in decomposing your fat ActiveRecord models and keeping your code both slim and readable. While this article is written with Ruby On Rails in mind, it easily applies to other frameworks, especially MVC based and applying ActiveRecord pattern.
The goal of the research project we undertook was to find a robust web-based SR tool which could – among other things – support medical vocabulary and which could be speaker independent.
well-described task is at least half of the story behind its successful implementation. Some other success factors are hidden in what happens to the task further down the road and especially in how the necessary feedback is provided and processed in the task implementation.
With Ruby on Rails as our primary backend technology, we have developed a set of practices for testing our applications. Our goal was to maximize the efficiency of writing tests that cover the most critical parts of the software built.
The most popular approach to testing React components is to use either Mocha+Chai+Enzyme or Jest+Enzyme. In this article, we will describe our React components testing practices with Jest+Enzyme which are also applicable to Mocha+Chai.
