After multiple iterations, the Intro to SimpleTest session has gotten pretty good at teaching people how to write a test, but one of the questions that were often asked during the testing sprint that followed the session was: what do I need to test? I submitted this presentation again for DrupalCon DC as there are still a lot of developers out there who want to get familiar with automated testing, and this time we need to be able to make a better job at responding to the question "what are we testing?"

I told people I would share the slides for the intro to testing presentation, so here they are. Also, after talking with Kristof Van Tomme earlier tonight, it seems that the presentation videos should be ready pretty quickly, so check back here for updates!

Update: the video from the presentation is now available here.

The monthly Swiss Drupal User Group meeting took place yesterday at the Hochschule für Technik Zürich. This was a good occasion to do a test run of my presentation on SimpleTest, and the questions from participants of diverse level of understanding definitely gave me some insights on points that could be improved. The overall feedback was good, including a short but positive response on rapsli's blog.

I am happy to announce that I will be attending my second DrupalCon. This time, the conference is taking place in Szeged, Hungary on August 27-30 with a one-day coding sprint afterwards.
