Web testing architecture and refactoring with Cypress
In this workshop, I will introduce you to the migrator.cypress.io project in an unconventional way, where in addition to going over the Cypress commands equivalent to Protractor (and showing you how Cypress is simpler), I will also introduce you how I tested such a project evolving the automated test scripts on-demand, architecting the test suite in an evolutionary way.
Date & Time: TBD. Remote via Zoom.
Automate WebApp Security Testing using GitHub Actions (from StackHawk team)
Software development has changed - Frequent deployments, APIs, GraphQL, Cloud Architecture and CI/CD Automation are the norm. So why is security testing the same way it was a decade ago?
Leading teams are realizing that periodical penetration testing and security audits is not enough when code is being shipped daily. Instead, these teams are using developer-centric tools to run automated security testing in a CI/CD pipeline. Join Zachary Conger as he walks through how to automate application JS security testing using GitHub actions.
Date & Time: October 27, 17:00-19:00 CET. Remote via Zoom.
How to Design a Sustainable Freelance/Contracting Career (from Toptal team)
Ready to kickstart your freelance career or just getting started on your journey? You’re in the right spot. Learn from the world’s largest fully distributed workforce in the world.
The independent talent movement is the future of work. If you’re considering leaving full-time employment for a career as a freelancer, now is the time to find your successful space in the independent talent workforce. More people are working freelance today than ever before, with the freelance marketplace now contributing $1.2 trillion to the US economy. Some of the most in-demand roles for freelancers right now are senior developers with professional experience in React, Python, Blockchain, QA, and Node.js.
This workshop will help you design a sustainable and profitable full-time (or part-time) freelancing/contracting career. We will give you tools, tips, best practices, and help you avoid common pitfalls.
At the end of the workshop there will be a Q&A session with a Toptal Talent (Developer) who can answer your questions and provide insights and tips into their own success.
Date & Time: TBD. Remote via Zoom.
How to start with Cypress
The web has evolved. Finally, testing has also. Cypress is a modern testing tool that answers the testing needs of modern web applications. It has been gaining a lot of traction in the last couple of years, gaining worldwide popularity. If you have been waiting to learn Cypress, wait no more! Filip Hric will guide you through the first steps on how to start using Cypress and set up a project on your own. The good news is, learning Cypress is incredibly easy. You'll write your first test in no time, and then you'll discover how to write a full end-to-end test for a modern web application. You'll learn the core concepts like retry-ability. Discover how to work and interact with your application and learn how to combine API and UI tests. Throughout this whole workshop, we will write code and do practical exercises. You will leave with a hands-on experience that you can translate to your own project.
Date & Time: TBD. Remote via Zoom.
Automated testing using WebdriverIO
In this workshop, I cover not only what WebdriverIO can do, but also how you'll be using it day-to-day. I've built the exercises around real-world scenarios that demonstrate how you would actually set things up. It's not just "what to do," but specifically "how to get there." We'll cover the fundamentals of Automated UI testing so you can write maintainable, useful tests for your website and/or web app.
