Sebastian knows his stuff and is a good presenter. I like his talks and this in general, since it wraps up a bunch of smell you sometime forget about.
Your Tests are lying!
Sebastian Bergmann (30.May.2011 at 16:30)
Talk at International PHP Conference 2011 Spring Edition (English - UK)
Unit Tests help reducing the cost and risk of any individual change smaller. But how do you know that your tests are not lying and give you a false sense of confidence? In this session you will learn how to automatically detect problems in your test code, so called Test Smells, and how to avoid them. You will also learn how to write effective tests that will pay you back with information.

Good example how to cheat the continuous integration system and the boss :)

I learned good ways of expressing what is wrong about some tests, and that is quite useful to get one's point across. Everything was backed by decent examples and stories from the trenches, that's always nice.
