NCDevCon Session Spotlight: Stop Making Excuses and Start Testing Your JavaScript!

Most developers know that it's important to test their JavaScript, however there are a plethora of reasons why they don't test their JavaScript. "I don't know where to start.", "I don't know how", "My code isn't testable", and "I don't have the time" are all excuses that are commonly used. This session aims to give developers the tools to solve these common problems. Attendees will learn how to setup a testing framework, how to get started writing unit tests, including advanced techniques like mocking and stubbing, learn how to write testable JavaScript code, and how to save time by automating running tests with tools like The Intern, Grunt, and Karma.
