JS Party: JavaScript, CSS, Web Development

A hot cup of Mocha ☕


Listen Later

Amal and Divya turn our spotlight inward and interview our very own Christopher “Boneskull” Hiller about maintaining Mocha.js. Mocha has been a mainstay in the JavaScript testing community for ten (!) years now! They discuss the secret to Mocha’s success, what it’s like to maintain it, and how to make maintainers (and users) happy!
