Crippling Facebook

  2. Maximize the browser window
  3. Press F12 and click on the Console tab
  4. Select the code below, copy it, paste it upon the Console line (The area next to the > character in the Console window), and press enter:

Testing… is not that hard

From time to time we need to talk about this topic. Most of us are familiar with it and we feel comfortable with writing tests, but the truth is that doing so is not a particularly popular topic.

In the past years, the tendency has been using some variant of cool techniques like TDD and BDD, and they are well applied; but most developers don't follow the rules or feel like the deadlines don't allow them to just write unit or integration tests. Geez… I even have heard some people say: "[sic] writing test is for QA teams right?"

Well… this is my attempt to show that testing is not that hard and can be an easy part of your daily workflow.
