The Ruby Testing Podcast

Like I did some months ago, I'm taking another break from The Ruby Testing Podcast to focus on my new podcast, Rails with Jason.

I talk with Erin Dees about Cucumber, maintaining test code over the long haul, page objects, ways to fix flapping tests, and, naturally, goats.

I talk with Molly Struve and Sam Hotop from Kenna Security about the creation and implementation of Mr. Radar, a tool for detecting anomalies in production data.

Josh and I discuss our experiences with Rails testing as well as testing front-end code and single-page applications.

In this episode, I talk with Zach Dennis about his experience with TDD, the benefits of test first vs test after, the pitfalls of being a TDD purist when working with a team, and giving yourself permission to do things in new and novel ways.

My new book, Rails Testing for Beginners, is now available for sale. You can use the discount code RTP2019 to get $20 off the book through 3/22/2019 at 3pm Eastern.

Corey and I discuss our approaches to TDD and refactoring.

I'm taking a break from a regular publishing schedule to work on some other things, including writing a Rails testing book.

Josh Clayton and I talk about factories vs. fixtures, mystery guests, obscure tests, and Factory Bot.

Chris Kottom and I talk about some of the differences between RSpec and Minitest as well as how to decide which testing framework to work with.
