James Shore

Automated tests are important. Unfortunately, many automated tests also waste a huge amount of time. The easy, obvious way to write tests is to make broad tests that are automated versions of manual tests. It’s also easy to make poor-quality tests that are hard to read, or end up only testing themselves.

Testing Without Mocks: A Pattern Language

James Shore

When programmers use test-driven development (TDD), the code they test interacts with other parts of the system that aren't being tested. To test those interactions, and to prevent the other code from interfering with their tests, programmers often use mock objects or other test doubles.

What is SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle)?

Openxcell

System engineers and developers use them to plan for, design, build, test, and deliver information systems. It aims at producing high-quality systems that meet or exceed customer expectations based on their requirements. You can create a formal review at the end of each phase to give you maximum management control.

Mistaking performance for competence

TechCrunch

In addition to running our robotics coverage, I also run TC’s hardware coverage overall, including all the consumer news and reviews. That involves due diligence, some research and choosing the stories we deem most relevant to our readers. It’s important to get out there and see as many of these systems in person as possible.
