A Gentle Introduction to Debugging and Testing Node Web Apps
Details
• What we'll do
Spencer Jones (https://twitter.com/jones_spencera) will present a code-heavy, beginner-friendly, introduction to testing Node.js web applications. He will demonstrate how to wire together tools like Mocha, Supertest, and a debugging environment for a high-efficiency and pleasant development experience. At the end, listeners will be able to abandon debugging with console.log and feel confident writing tests against their APIs.
Attendance is free! We'll have a great space courtesy of Social Tables (https://www.socialtables.com/), and food and drink will be provided by NodeSource (https://go.nodesource.com/nodedc) and StrongLoop (https://strongloop.com/).
Members of the NodeDC community are expected to adhere to our Code of Conduct (https://github.com/NodeDC/CodeOfConduct).
