Great job, very entertaining and several good tips. The transition between the many topics could be smoother, or it could have less topics in exchange for more depth, but overall this was a very well-rounded talk anyway
Really good tips that we don't hear often enough yet ??
It’s good to see what goes on under the hood, and Sara gave us a good tour with just the right amount of detail to avoid being too scary.
Nice collection of tips and insights on building a API with PHP.
Informative talk very well delivered.
Good talk with just a nice balance of information and demos.
Good talk filled with great reminders of things that we should do to keep on to of our game.
Architecture and testing are two of my favourite topics of software engineering, and this talk discusses both of them. Dave does a great job defining the holy grail of test suites, and then explaining why this is impossible to accomplish and why different types of tests all have their place in a test suite. Talking about testing is always hard because people use different terminology, or have different definitions of the same terms (there is no "ubiquitous language", some people would say). Although Dave established a common terminology to avoid confusion during his talk, I feel like it would be helpful to point to an external resource (such as Nat Pryce's or Martin Folwer's) explaining the used definitions more in depth. I also feel that Hexagonal Architecture / Ports and Adapters would be worth mentioning (if he did and I missed it, please excuse me). Nevertheless, this is a great talk both for people new to testing and for people who already have some experience with (unit) testing. I would definitely recommend seeing this one!
Funny, engaging and exactly as promised.
Great job, very refreshing talk!
