I gave this talk at JFokus this week in Stockholm. I thought people might be interested in a summary of my main points.I've been using Selenium for web application testing for over a year now, on a couple of different projects. This talk is based on my...
One of the things I like about GothPy is that lots of the people in the group enjoy writing code in their spare time, and like to share with us what they're up to.A little while back, Olof came up with this little tool, PyTDDmon, which is to help you when you're doing...
I've enjoyed my time working for Iptor, but I found I just couldn't refuse Carl-Johan when he offered me a job at eLabs. I first med C-J a few years ago at Got.rb, the local Ruby User Group, and I know he has a great entrepreneurial spirit and deep technical...
JUseCase is the Java version of PyUseCase, for testing GUIs written in Swing. It was originally written as a master's thesis by Claes Verdoes in 2005, under Geoff's supervision. Since then it hasn't been used much, and has lain idle and unmaintained for a while. In...
I recently read this post in Brian Marick's blog, and it set me thinking. He's talking about a test whose intention in some way survived three major GUI revisions. The test code had to be rewritten each time, but the essence of it was retained. He says: I changed the...
Geoff has been working really hard for the past few months, writing pyUseCase 3.0. It has some very substantial improvements over previous versions, and I am very excited about it. He's written about how it works here.It's a tool for testing GUIs with a record-replay...
Today I listened to a presentation about "Scrum for Managers" from Jens Östergaard. He's a big, friendly Dane who grew up in Sweden, and now lives in the UK. I first met Jens at XP2003 in Genoa, when he had just run his first successful Scrum project. These days he...
The programme for Scandinavian Developer Conference has just been published. I think we have a fantastic line up of speakers this year. I am particularly pleased Michael Feathers, Brian Marick and Diana Larsen have agreed to join us, and that this year my husband...
It occurred to me that I should mention that I now work for Iptor Konsult AB rather than IBS JavaSolutions. This is not due to my changing jobs, rather that IBS decided that since we don't do the same things as the rest of the company, we should have a separate name...
When I wrote this post about the public Texttest nightjob statistics, I thought they were a bit confusing and hard to understand. Geoff has now rewritten the page to contain fewer numbers, and just report the passed and failed tests from the previous night. I think...
Hi – I´m Emily!
I am an independent consultant with Bache Consulting and chair of the Samman Technical Coaching Society. As a technical coach I work with software development organizations who want to get better at the technical practices needed to be agile, including Test-Driven Development, Refactoring and Incremental Design. I live in Gothenburg, Sweden, although I am originally from the UK. I’ve written two books: “Technical Agile Coaching with the Samman method” and “The Coding Dojo Handbook”. I teach for both O’Reilly and Pluralsight. I’m married to Geoff Bache, creator of TextTest.
