From mongers at bsod.net Mon Aug 13 08:47:05 2007 From: mongers at bsod.net (Pete Krawczyk) Date: Mon, 13 Aug 2007 10:47:05 -0500 (CDT) Subject: [Chicago-announce] REMINDER: August 14, 2007: Perl Unit and Functional Testing Message-ID: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chicago Perl Mongers / UniForum Meeting Announcement --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Topic: Perl Unit and Functional Testing Presenter: Kent Cowgill Date/Time: Tuesday, August 14th, 2007, 7:00 PM Location: IIT-Rice Campus, 201 East Loop Rd, Wheaton, IL Afterward: Dinner at CozyMel's --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kent will be talking about getting started with unit and functional testing using everyone's favorite language, Perl. Additionally, he will talk about code quality, test coverage, and making things a lot easier on the person doing the testing using a Makefile. Finally, Kent will talk about how he used Test::Harness to create a custom test module in order to be able to unit test the code in use at his job, which is a template framework that combines perl code with HTML, making traditional unit testing rather difficult. Kent Cowgill has been a Perl programmer and system administrator for over a dozen years. Recently, he's written a large test suite for a legacy system, using reverse engineering, namespace manipulation and several Perl modules (such as Test::MockObject, Devel::Cover and HTML::Lint). As with all Chicago Perl Mongers meetings, everyone is welcome, whether or not you consider yourself a member. We look forward to seeing you there! Questions about this meeting?
