How to write tests that find bugs

Dr. Mauricio Aniche explains how developers can write tests that find bugs. Writing effective test cases that bring confidence is not that easy. Many developers are familiar with testing frameworks and regularly write automated software tests. Yet, often they don’t test systematically. That’s why Mauricio writes a book called “Effective Software Testing” which shows practical approaches to systematically test software. You can win a digital copy of the Effective Software Testing book, when you like and retweet this episode’s link, which you can find here.

We talk about:

- the difference between effective and not effective test cases,

- how domain-based testing helps to write good test cases,

- how you can use coverage reports to get an idea of which scenarios you haven’t tested yet,

- and how to write testable and maintainable code.
