You may have already started unit testing or at least understand the basics. But there’s one large obstacle that stands in your way: dependencies. Most code was not written to be easy to test.

This is an intensive demonstration of automated testing hard-core legacy code. If you are a programming ninja, or want to truly understand the value of powerful and professional unit testing, check it out.

1. How do you apply unit testing to code that wasn’t designed for testability and normally breaks when testing?
2. How can you test dependencies and other tangled code?
3. How do you get out of the death spiral of testing?

Join this webinar and learn:

1. Problems with legacy code
2. How isolation helps
3. Hand rolled mocks
4. Mocking frameworks
5. Writing effective unit tests

Join this webinar and learn different methods and tools that help create unit tests that can mock dependencies.

Lots of organizations are adopting Agile. Some of these organizations are finding practical ways to integrate testing into Agile lifecycles.

In this presentation, Rex will address challenges and opportunities associated with Agile, different ways of adapting Agile lifecycles and the testing within those lifecycles, and how Agile differs from traditional lifecycles.

Rex will:

• Examine tools and metrics for Agile projects
• Address whether Agile can be used for outsourced projects
• Look at different options for organizing test teams on Agile projects, and why only some of these options can work
• Offer his thoughts on Agile and quality, and what skills and personalities work best in Agile projects.

In this free webinar, Rex will discuss these points and more, giving you a better shot at Agile testing success.

In the beginning there was the Agile Manifesto,
And everything looked peachy.
And then the universe exploded.

10 years later, we’re in the (Post?) Agile Era, where rival “tribes” are off to win the holy grail of “We Were Right!”. There are Craftsmen, SCRUM People, Lean People, Post-Agilists, and everyone else in the middle trying to make sense of the quest called Agile.

How come the agile principles, which were meant to be the Great Unifying Theory of Software, initiated a decade-old tribal war? Is agile the answer, or simply a filler between the waterfall and the next trend?

Join Gil in a travel through time, to piece together a puzzle of politics, money, intrigue, and yes – even software, to come up with a better understanding of what really happened and where we’re going from here…

What if you could effectively manage the cost and complexity of your mobile application testing without compromising the quality of the result? An effective mobile application testing strategy that uses real devices while leveraging your existing test environment and testing methods—including manual testing, automated testing, and continuous monitoring—can help deliver better results.

IBM’s mobile app testing strategy works by combining multiple testing techniques and utilizing specialized techniques and services from IBM partners, such as Keynote. Keynote’s DeviceAnywhere platform enables mobile app and website testing on real devices, helping to improve quality of your mobile applications while accelerating your test process and making it cost-effective.

During this event, Leigh Williamson from IBM (LinkedIn profile) and Rachel Obstler from Keynote will help you learn:

1. How to simplify your mobile testing with test automation, while leveraging your existing environment
2. How to enable improved control over your testing processes with advanced, state-of-the-art features
3. How to utilize IBM’s Rational Quality Manager and DeviceAnywhere together to easily test on real devices with real results
