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
- How to Unit Test Your Annotation Processor using jOOR is a practical blog post that describes how you can write tests for your annotation processor by using a reflection library (jOOR) used by jOOQ.
- Test-driven infrastructure development with Ansible & Molecule is an interesting blog post that explains how you can use TDD when you are describing your whole infrastructure with code.
The Really Valuable Stuff
- If We Do Sanity Testing Before Release, Do We Have To Do Regression Testing is an excellent blog post that explains why some questions shouldn't be answered without addressing the context. However, if you ask this question, you will get uneducated answers as well. Because the author knows this, he also gives some advice that help you to deal with these answers.
- It's not What Happens at the Keyboard is a thought-provoking blog post which explains why recording only the actions of a tester doesn't help someone else to do proper exploratory testing.
