• Software Testing at ROUGOL, Monday 17th May 2021

    From ROUGOL@21:1/5 to All on Fri May 14 17:13:29 2021
    The next online meeting of the RISC OS User Group Of London will be:

    Software Testing
    Presented by Gerph

    Monday 17th May 2021, 7:45pm

    Online via Zoom, meeting open from 7.30pm

    Following on from last year's very well received talk about Building RISC
    OS Online, Gerph will be making a welcome return to talk about how the
    build service can be used to help with software testing.

    https://build.riscos.online/

    Gerph cares that systems are well designed and tested, and that developers
    get useful feedback on failures. However this is often difficult on
    "classic" RISC OS, due to lack of suitable tools and system instability. Helping with this is one of the goals of RISC OS Pyromaniac.

    Gerph will be talking about the principles of testing levels (unit -
    system and customer testing), and why we do it, and then starting out with theoretical examples for an application, before moving on to a concrete discussion of a tiny section of Edit. He will cover a really basic
    example, and follow this with a more involved example of how to make tests
    for a module.

    Gerph is also looking for feedback and has put up an online survey:
