Smarter Testing With Spock

http://photos3.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/9/1/6/5/event_27277221.jpegThis talk covers Spock (http://spockframework.org), a developer testing framework brought back from the future to help you write kick-ass Java and Groovy apps. After a quick introduction, you will learn about Spock's approach to state-based, interaction-based, and data-driven testing. After that, we will have fun with some smaller and larger Spock extensions. Along the way, expect to see lots of live examples and comparisons to well-known testing tools like JUnit and EasyMock. You will leave this talk with a deep understanding of why Spock is more Enterprise-ready than any of its competitors.
