London .NET User Group:Long Term Value of Acceptance Tests
Long Term Value of Acceptance Tests
Most discussion on automated acceptance tests focuses on
immediate benefits in development and defect detection or regression
testing. But that's not all you can get from your tests. While
working on his new book, Gojko interviewed more than 50 teams that got
big pay-offs from automated acceptance tests, including some that have
been using agile acceptance testing for six or seven years. In the
long term, most of these teams got quite unexpected benefits, such as
being able to support their system easier, significantly change their
business models or survive the absence of key business people. Gojko
will talk about these long term benefits of acceptance tests and what
you need to do to get them.

Gojko Adzic's BDD for Developers
This hands-on BDD workshop will help you get the key skills needed to succeed with behaviour driven development and specification by example. Through simulations and practical exercises, you will apply the ideas and practices of BDD to solve the most common issues development teams have with specifications and tests. You will use Cucumber to define and automate BDD scenarios to provide stakeholders with visibility into software features and help the delivery teams drive development and build quality in from the start.

Gojko Adzic's Test Driven Development Workshop
Gojko Adzic's two day workshop on Test Driven Development (TDD) enables you to experience and learn test driven development by doing it. You will be immersed in a realistic TDD project, allowing you to learn the practices and principles of test driven development and try them out in practice. Through facilitated exercises and discussion, you will experience two days of working on an agile test-driven team. You will use and learn basic Test Driven Development practices including unit testing, refactoring and related agile practices such as continuous integration and pair programming. You will understand the reasons behind TDD and experience its benefits first-hand. By applying what you learn, you will be able to build quality into software from the start, design and develop systems fit for purpose and write code that is easy to maintain and evolve in the future.
