Failing at Integration Testing: Common Mistakes
Integration tests are slow and difficult to maintain because they have substantially more system touch points than unit tests and hence change more often. These elaborate or sophisticated tests provide a role that unit tests cannot replace, thus there is no way to avoid creating them while focusing solely on unit tests. Because their failure is… Continue reading Failing at Integration Testing: Common Mistakes
Fixing an Hourglass Software Testing Pattern
Automated software tests make it safer and faster to create new features, fix bugs, and refactor code. When planning the automated tests, we envision a pyramid with a strong foundation of small unit tests, some well designed integration tests, and a few large end-to-end tests. From Just Say No to More End-to-End Tests, tests should be fast,… Continue reading Fixing an Hourglass Software Testing Pattern
