There are many software development blogs out there, but many of them don't publish testing articles on a regular basis.
Also, I have noticed that some software developers don't read blogs written by software testers. That is a shame because I think that we can learn a lot from them.
That is why I decided to create a newsletter that shares the best testing articles which I found during the last week.
Let's get started.
Technical Stuff
- Test-Driven Development: Really, It’s a Design Technique is a useful blog post that provides a comprehensive introduction to TDD. During this blog post the author writes a simple converter that converts a Roman number into an Arabic number by using Java (and TDD).
The Really Valuable Stuff
- 6 Steps for Succeeding with Test Automation in Agile is a good blog post that identifies two most common reasons why test automation efforts don't meet their goals and provides a step-by-step guide that helps you to avoid these these problems.
- Java Unit Testing Best Practices: How to Get the Most out of Your Test Automation identifies seven best practices that help you to write robust unit tests.
- On Test Maturity is an interesting post that identifies five different test maturity levels and provides a few links that help you level up your testing game.
