Hello Cypress!

Cypress.io is a new tool for front end testing - unit, integration, end-to-end - that deals perfectly well with Angular and React and enables collaboration on the team level. Kate will share with you her journey with Cypress, how to start using it, what are its advantages and challenges, and how her team uses Cypress in Continuous Deployment. Real life examples based on a real application will explain the basics and encourage you to explore more.

About Kate:

She has more than 15 years of work experience in software testing and quality assurance, being responsible for testing of several successful applications in various domains, from medical to workforce management.

Vista has parking onsite, at rear of the building:

Enter Burton St, turn left onto Madeira Place, then turn right onto Madeira Lane. Drive straight ahead and veer left on to the ground level car park. Take the path around the left hand side of the building and enter through the main doors on Khyber Pass Road.

(Note: We are trialling the introduction of a booking fee for our meetups. The Meetup app doesn't support NZD so the fee is given in GBP but works out to around $4.90. For more information about why we have introduced the fee, you should already have received an email from us or you can check out the message in the #general channel on Slack. Thanks, Teresa)
