Explore how JSDOM's browser simulation works, and learn front-end testing approaches using Vitest Browser Mode for direct browser testing and native APIs

Why I Won’t Use JSDOM

Understand the key differences between mock state management methods: mockClear(), mockReset(), and mockRestore(). Write clean test states.

The Difference Between Clearing, Resetting, and Restoring Mocks

There can be a lot of confusion and doubt when it comes to writing tests. Answering this simple question may help clear a lot of it out.

Writing Tests That Fail

Learn to mock functions, time, globals, network, and modules. Practice real-world scenarios using Vitest to write effective and maintainable tests.

Mocking Techniques in Vitest

Learn how to test time-dependent side effects that should not happen. Avoid false positives by using inverse assertions.

Inverse Assertions

Flaky tests undermine trust. Use the S.M.A.R.T. framework: Skip, Mitigate, Assess, Rewrite, Throw away, to manage and fix them effectively.

Be S.M.A.R.T. About Flaky Tests

Learn automated testing essentials: prepare code, execute actions, verify outcomes. Discover the importance of mocking and setting proper test boundaries.

What Is A Test Boundary?

Learn what testability means, how it relates to code complexity, and why it's essential for effective testing. 








Good Code, Testable Code

In the Testing Fundamentals workshop, you will learn testing principles, framework structure, async handling, and more by building a mini testing-framework!

Artem Zakharchenko presents MSW's WebSocket support, enabling mock-first development for better control and real-time testing.

Mocking WebSockets with MSW

Have a better understanding about the explicit and implicit assertions now, and perhaps even have a test or two in mind to improve.

Implicit Assertions

Dive into the contentious world of code coverage. Learn its nuances, pitfalls, and practical applications for modern web app testing

Making Use of Code Coverage

Explore the analogy between learning human anatomy and writing code tests, emphasizing a universal three-step structure: Setup, Action, and Assertion.
