APress Build Your Own Test Framework
Book SynopsisLearn to write better automated tests that will dramatically increase your productivity and have fun while doing so. This book is a build-your-own adventure designed for individual reading and for collaborative workshops. You will build an xUnit automated test framework using JavaScript: initially a clone of Jest, but adding a couple of neat features borrowed from RSpec, the genre-defining tool for behavior-driven development (BDD). Along the way, you will explore the philosophy behind automated testing best practices. The automated test runner is one of the most important innovations within software engineering. But for many programmers, automated testing remains a mystery, and knowing how to write good tests is akin to sorcery. As the chapters of this book unfold, you will see how the humble test runner is an elegant and simple piece of software. Each chapter picks a single feature to build, like the it function or the beforeEach Table of ContentsPart 1: Building the Core of a Test Framework In this part we build a barebones implementation of a test runner.Chapter 1: Creating an NPM Package of My Very Own, You will create a new NPM package for concise-test, including an entry-point for the test runner.Chapter 2: Building it to Define a Testwe’ll implement the it function for defining tests, and start printing out some useful test run information on screen.Chapter 3: Grouping Tests with Describe, we’ll add support for grouping tests with the describe function, and we’ll continue to build out test reporting on screen. Chapter 4: Promoting Conciseness with BeforeEach and AfterEachWe continue our quest for concise testing facilities with the addition of beforeEach and afterEach functions. Chapter 5: Improving Legibility with Expect, We finish off the core of our API by building an abstraction over throw new Error. Part 2: Constructing a Usable Framework In this part we add features that you’ll use on a daily basis. Chapter 6: Formatting Expectation ErrorsWe write a formatter for stack traces to help pinpoint failures quickly. Chapter 7. Automatically Discovering Test FilesWe’ll add test file discovery to our test runner, and add support for running a single file through a command line argument. Chapter 8: Focusing on Tests with It.Only and Describe.Only, We split out runner into two phases: a discovery phase and an execution phase. In between them, we insert a filter phase to support running only a subset of phases. Chapter 9: Supporting Asynchronous Tests, We add the ability to wait on tests that return Promise objects, and timing out tests with it.timesOutAfter. Chapter 10: Reportingwe use a pub-sub model to build a plug-in system for reporters. Part 3: Extending for Power Users In this part we continue to add advanced features. Chapter 11: Sharing Behavior with it.BehavesLike, We borrow an important feature from Ruby: inheritance for describe blocks, which gives us a flexible mechanism for removing duplication between test groups. Chapter 12: Tagging Tests We create a mechanism for running a group of tests based on their tag. Chapter 13 : Skipping Tests we introduce a number of ways to skip tests, including tests without bodies, and it.skip plus describe.skip functions. Chapter 14 : Randomizing TestsWe add a runtime flag for randomizing the order of tests, which is a useful technique for catching invisible dependencies between tests. Part 4: Test Doubles and MocksChapter 15. Understanding test doubleswe create a function that can be used as a test spy and stub.Chapter 16. Module MocksWe create a system for mocking out entire modules, which is a useful technique when creating component doubles when testing React.

Palgrave MacMillan UK The Philosophy of Software Code and Mediation in the Digital Age
Book SynopsisThis book is a critical introduction to code and software that develops an understanding of its social and philosophical implications in the digital age. Written specifically for people interested in the subject from a non-technical background, the book provides a lively and interesting analysis of these new media forms.Trade Review'This is a beautifully written book that pulls off the difficult task of introducing the subject of software and the workings of code to the non specialist whilst also providing an original take of the philosophical and the cultural importance of Code in contemporary culture.' - Michael Bull, University of Sussex, UK 'The book is warmly recommended:[Berry's] understanding of software is fantastic. It reaches out to so many discussions and has so many implications that it is an engine in itself: it produces ideas.' - Jussi Parikka, Leonardo on-line 'What is important about The Philosophy of Software is that it really is about what it claims to be about. Rather than trying to shoehorn software into an existing philosophical or political agenda it considers software as a thing in itself and finds those philosophers and philosophical ideas that best address the vitally important phenomenon of software. However much philosophy, computer science or cybercultural theory you may know this is a book that will set you thinking about software anew.' - Rob Myers, Furtherfield 'One of the most prolific contributors to the CCSWGs, David M. Berry has also contributed one of the most extensive manuscripts on reading code and code culture. The Philosophy of Software contains chapters on the epistemology and ontology of code, reading and writing code, running code, and the phenomenology of code. Written for a general audience, the book reads several code examples including the Microsoft Windows 2000 source code and obfuscated code competitions.' - Mark C.

John Wiley & Sons Inc Pragmatic Software Testing
Book SynopsisA hands-on guide to testing techniques that deliver reliable software and systems Testing even a simple system can quickly turn into a potentially infinite task. Faced with tight costs and schedules, testers need to have a toolkit of practical techniques combined with hands-on experience and the right strategies in order to complete a successful project. World-renowned testing expert Rex Black provides you with the proven methods and concepts that test professionals must know. He presents you with the fundamental techniques for testing and clearly shows you how to select and apply successful strategies to test a system with budget and time constraints. Black begins by discussing the goals and tactics of effective and efficient testing. Next, he lays the foundation of his technique for risk-based testing, explaining how to analyze, prioritize, and document risks to the quality of the system using both informal and formal techniques. He then clearly describes howTable of ContentsAcknowledgments. Introduction. Part I Goals, Strategies, and Tactics. Chapter 1 What Does It Mean to Be Pragmatic? What Do Effective and Efficient Mean?

Taylor & Francis Ltd The ROI from Software Quality
Book SynopsisThe ROI from Software Quality provides the tools needed for software engineers and project managers to calculate how much they should invest in quality, what benefits the investment will reap, and just how quickly those benefits will be realized. This text provides the quantitative models necessary for making real and reasonable calculations and it shows how to perform ROI analysis before and after implementing a quality program. The book demonstrates how to collect the appropriate data and easily perform the appropriate ROI analysis.Taking an evidence-based approach, this book supports its methodology with large amounts of data and backs up its positioning with numerous case studies and straightforward return-on-investment calculations. By carefully substantiating arguments, this volume separates itself from other works on ROI.Table of ContentsIntroduction. Measuring software quality. Software quality practices. The state of the practice. A software quality benchmark. Quality and the cost of ownership. Quality and the cost to developers. Quality and profitability. Calculating return-on-investment. Example ROI calculations. The quality of open source software. Making the business case.
