End-to-end Testing With A Real Browser
In this session, we will discuss end-to-end browser testing which helps us create rock-solid web apps. It is particularly important, since you can validate certain website behavior with it, which unit tests or integration tests will never catch.
Umar Hansa will explore:
- Options for end-to-end browser testing in JavaScript.
- Scraping data from other websites.
- Outputting screenshots and video so you can watch recordings of your tests.
- Some common testing pitfalls.

What’s Smashing TV?
