Follow up workshop & brown bag ideas from Testing: Where does it hurt? (tracking)
Open, MediumPublic

Description

From July 27, 2015 Testing: Where does it hurt? (T102713)
https://etherpad.wikimedia.org/p/testing-where-does-it-hurt

Workshop ideas:

  1. Anatomy of a test: browser tests, unit tests, what do good test look like? What are tradeoffs with these types of tests?

File system, network I/O how to deal with that stuff

Brown bag sessions (for time and space to get into testing mindset):

  1. Write testing procedures that can be repeated by others
  2. Tiered approaches- identify handful of tests to run for every commit- differentiate broad coverage tests to run on every deployment but not every commit and tests we want devs to run locally beforehand <--- pairing or workshop?
  3. idea from BG: Possible talking point: approaches for dealing with legacy (read: untested) code

@ggellerman @dduvall is this stuff still moving forward at all? If not, perhaps these tickets can be closed given their age and inactivity.

@Awjrichards

We decided that the project could end. We had a retro, RelEng got something out of the effort, and I have renamed the Phab project from Testing-Initiative-2015 to Testing-Initiative.

I have removed Team-Practices project from here.
