Build a Safety Net for Your Architecture
To understand large legacy systems we need to look beyond code. We need to understand both how the system evolves and how the people building it collaborate. Once we embrace that we can start to truly improve. In this extract from Your code as a Crime Scene, Adam provides novel techniques that let you evaluate and supervise your automated checks on both unit and system level.
Key Takeaways:
- Detect test automation gone wrong.
- Understand the evolutionary nature of test data.
- Learn about human problem solving.
