Ken Kousen talks about Testing Grails

It's on! Ken is coming to Austin! He's also talking at the JUG on the 26th, with the talk "Seriously, Use Groovy NOW!" you should also check out of if you can.

Talk info:

Grails comes with extensive testing support, ranging from unit to integration to functional tests. This session will demonstrate the range of options available both natively and through testing plugins. Prerequisite: Some knowledge of Grails would be helpful but not assumed. Ken will try his best to bring some Grails 3 tips as well!
