Meeting 2013 September

Fennec V2, and some other tools

I will be presenting on a couple modules that simply make life easier. The primary one will be Fennec. Fennec makes testing much easier, and solves a lot of problems for you. If you are not using Fennec you are working too hard on your tests.

Other modules will be presented time-allowing and depending on group interest.

Fennec Slides

My slides are already online, the Fennec documentation is written in presentation format. The presentation can be found here for anyone that wants to view it early.

Fennec About

Fennec is a testers toolbox. Fennec improves on testing in many ways:

• Less boilerplate
• Better state management
• Forking just works
• Parallelization of tests within files
• Running selected tests within a file
• Better mocking
