We return again for another remote meetup.

We've got two fantastic talks about some less known but very interesting areas of PHP; Websockets in practice and Mutation testing.

We're going to be using Zoom for the event - the link will be added a couple of days beforehand

So grab your own pizza and a drink and join us for an evening of informative security talks.

A big thanks to our sponsors SR2 (https://www.sr2rec.co.uk/), Ents24 (http://www.ents24.com/), Brightpearl (http://www.brightpearl.com/), BookingLive (https://www.bookinglive.com/) & OneSub (https://onesub.io/) who are supporting us and are helping make the virtual event happen.

This month's talks are:

  • How good are my tests?
    Stephan Hochdörfer (@shochdoerfer)

How to measure the quality of unit tests? Code coverage is not necessarily a good indicator to answer this question. What other options do we have? Do we need tests to test the quality of our tests? In some way, yes we do. In this session, I will introduce you to the concept of mutation-based testing and how this technique can be used to improve the quality of your test suite.

  • Websockets in practice
    Mike Lehan (@M1ke)

Using websockets and event-driven PHP libraries we can create real time applications that benefit our users. In this live coding session Mike will introduce websockets, how you can write event-driven code using ReactPHP and demonstrate some front end code to hook up to it. Take this as the building block of real time applications for your business or project.
