Over the past five years our development team, at Iowa Student Loan (ISL), leveraged TDD and Continuous Integration to develop software. Tests and builds quickly accumulate and maintaining them can be like herding cats. We were often tempted to neglect these tests in the pursuit of developing new functionality. We would like to share strategies that helped us maintain our automated test investments.</p> http://agile2009.agilealliance.org/node/806#comments Testing Experience report Automated Build change feedback loops maintenance new requirements test test suit unit test 45 minutes Mon, 02 Feb 2009 12:28:31 +0000 dkessler 806 at http://agile2009.agilealliance.org http://agile2009.agilealliance.org/node/346 <p>Spending more time maintaining your tests than your code? Started to write tests only to be discouraged by the complexity involved? Imagine if you could implement robust automated testing on even your most complex projects by simply writing one extra line of code… Now you can! Regardless of which testing framework you use, Approval Tests allow you to painlessly capture tested output in a visible, verifiable, and automated way. Particularly useful in the context of writing tests for legacy code, GUIs, databases and web pages, this open source solution is as pretty as a picture! </p> http://agile2009.agilealliance.org/node/346#comments Tools for Agility Talk Approval Tests automation BDD functional test tdd unit test 90 minutes Thu, 15 Jan 2009 21:40:59 +0000 Llewellyn.Falco 346 at http://agile2009.agilealliance.org
