Love.js by S.M. Sohan and Tyler Mercier

Abstract and Agenda:
If you loved JavaScript just a little, it will surely love you back. And you two will live happily ever after. This talk will introduce you to the Object Oriented JavaScript principles that I have found to be very effective in writing simple and testable Javascript code. The session will cover:
Object Oriented JavaScript Unit testing Running tests in CI CoffeeScript examples (and our opinion about it!) You will also see a live demonstration of test driven JavaScript development. This session will be interactive, so you are highly encouraged to share your Javascript stories along the way.
