NotesAs an alternative to Chromatic, I’ve been using Storybook’s Test Runner to power screenshot tests for Microsoft Loop. We configure the test runner to run in CI and take a screenshot of every story. However, the initial implementation based on the official Storybook docs was very flaky due to inconsistent screenshots of the same story. Here are some tips to reduce flakiness in your Storybook screenshot tests.Unfurl
NotesAt Storybook, we believe there’s still hope. For months we’ve been building Storybook Test, a tool for fast, flake-free UI tests. And we’re finally ready to share it with you.FeedUnfurl
Notesthe idea of shallow rendering is to instantiate a component and get the result of its render method, which is a ReactElement. From here you can do things like check its props and children and verify it works as expected.Unfurl
NotesTools that give application developers visibility into the conversations their apps are having with the services they rely on. Tools that make debugging and testing your API integrations as simple as any other line of code.Unfurl
NotesIn queueing theory, the M/M/c queue is a multi-server queueing model.[1] In Kendall's notation it describes a system where arrivals form a single queue and are governed by a Poisson process, there are c servers and job service times are exponentially distributed.[2] It is a generalisation of the M/M/1 queue which considers only a single server. The model with infinitely many servers is the M/M/∞ queue.FeedUnfurl
NotesI’ve been using Travis-CI for a while now. Both my personal projects, and even several of the libraries we maintain at DISQUS rely on it for Continuous Integration. I figured it was about time to confess my undenying love for Travis, and throw up some notes about the defaults we use in our projects.Unfurl

NotesLets walk through a basic node.js program using Test Driven Developement (TDD) and nodeunit. This program asks the user to enter a number, doubles it and returns the result.Unfurl
Notes I am pleasantly boggled that this is possible, and will probably write all sorts of odd tests now. Because Cucumber can fill in web forms, click on stuff, and so on, I might even be able to use it to check information on other sites. (When I check my mail, then all the messages in my inbox should be less than a week old?) Unfurl
NotesBehat was inspired by Ruby's Cucumber project and especially it's syntax part (Gherkin). It tries to be like Cucumber with input (Feature files) and output (console formatters)Unfurl
Notes"Freshen is an acceptance testing framework for Python, inspired by Cucumber and has the same goal: make BDD fun, but using Python instead of Ruby. Freshen uses the same syntax of Cucumber (Gherkin Syntax) and runs as a plugin of Nose, a powerful Python tool for using daily when you with TDD"Unfurl
Notes"Siege is an http load testing and benchmarking utility. It was designed to let web developers measure their code under duress, to see how it will stand up to load on the internet. Siege supports basic authentication, cookies, HTTP and HTTPS protocols. It lets its user hit a web server with a configurable number of simulated web browsers. Those browsers place the server "under siege." "FeedEmbedUnfurl
Notes"Where Mojo.Test diverges from the usual xUnit-type framework is in support for testing components that depend on asynchronous callbacks. Mojo.Test provides a callback function for results that can be used at the end of a chain of any number of callbacks from the component under test. It also maintains a test timer, which will cause the failure of any test that doesn't report a result within a configurable time limit. "Unfurl

Notes"Software should be designed, written, and deployed in small batches.Small batches mean faster feedback. Small batches mean problems are instantly localized. Small batches reduce risk. Small batches reduce overhead. "Unfurl

Notes" Back to the deploy process, nine minutes have elapsed and a commit has been greenlit for the website. The programmer runs the imvu_push script. The code is rsync’d out to the hundreds of machines in our cluster. Load average, cpu usage, php errors and dies and more are sampled by the push script, as a basis line. A symlink is switched on a small subset of the machines throwing the code live to its first few customers. A minute later the push script again samples data across the cluster and if there has been a statistically significant regression then the revision is automatically rolled back. If not, then it gets pushed to 100% of the cluster and monitored in the same way for another five minutes. The code is now live and fully pushed. This whole process is simple enough that it’s implemented by a handfull of shell scripts. "FeedUnfurl
Notes"GAEUnit is a unit test framework that helps to automate testing of your Google App Engine application. With a single configuration change (it can be completed within 30 seconds), your unit tests can be run in the real GAE app server environment using a web browser. "Unfurl
Notes"Siege is an http regression testing and benchmarking utility. It was designed to let web developers measure the performance of their code under duress, to see how it will stand up to load on the internet. Siege supports basic authentication, cookies, HTTP and HTTPS protocols. It allows the user hit a web server with a configurable number of concurrent simulated users.
