As a PHP developer, you’ve probably had to deal with Javascript at some point in your career. Some of the Javascript code you’ve written may even have been pretty complex. What happens if you need to make some changes? Will it break existing functionality? The only way to really know if everything is still working, is by unit testing your Javascript.
This talk will introduce you to QUnit for creating such Javascript unit tests which can run in any browser and to JsTestDriver for automatically running these tests across multiple browsers.

Interesting information, but Tom does not enthusiast me.
Real-life examples would be handy.

Very interesting talk. Nice demos. Easy to understand because speaker compares to unit testing in PHP, which is probably more common.

Clear presentation, good basic overview of the techniques and great that you had some extra contents. Examples are basic but clear, but I still miss some real-life exanples

I agree, a good, clear presentation. A few real-life examples would have been great, it might energize the presentation a bit. Because I did not feel incredibly motivated to start unit testing right away (although it was clear why I should).

I hadn't heard about javascript unit-testing before, so I came blank to this talk. For me it was quite useful and although there weren't some real-life examples, I do want to find out more on the subject. Mission accomplished for me!

I will definitely (try) to test my js now. The examples are great. Good/excellent thing to compare qunit with phpunit.
One thing: be more enthusiastic (like other ppl said: you did not seem motivated (but maybe it was the beer?)).
