About “The Rainbow of Death” talk
In this talk, you will learn how to make automated testing an integrated part of your daily software development.
It’s not easy to make a shift from “too hard to test” or “didn’t have time to test” attitude but there is a simple solution called a “Rainbow of Death”. This approach based on timeless principles is a key to a cultural shift towards transparency and collaboration. The ultimate goal is to make the right thing the easy thing.
