Mocks, Spies, and Timers - Oh My!
by Lisa Backer | @eshtadc (https://twitter.com/eshtadc)

The testing world is full of ways to simulate data and user interaction. Mocks, spies, stubs, and timers all allow you to focus your tests and remove unwanted interference. Maybe you've tried to set them up and been overwhelmed or maybe you've never even heard of them. Core concepts can help developers frame their thoughts about testing and structuring tests. We'll explore those core concepts and look at how to leverage existing libraries like Sinon.js, Testdouble.js, and more, with examples to make your test suite more stable and reliable.

It's a well designed API that can give life to an otherwise static app. We'll go over the basic concepts and API and jump straight into a live coding demonstration.
