Conversations about Front-End Testing. Every single line of code that is tested is a win for us. Unit, Integration, E2E, Snapshot, Visual Regression. Expect Exceptional Discussions about Frameworks, Tools, Libraries, and Techniques. Frontend Testing is such an opinionated topic and hosts Vanessa Böhner, Roman Kuba, Tobias Timm, Markus Wolf, David Müllerchen, and Mirjam Bäuerlein will dive deep into it to answer all your... or their questions. The web develops quickly. It's time that the testing evolves with it.

2: Testing UI Components
In this episode, Mirjam Bäuerlein, Roman Kuba, and Vanessa Böhner talked about how to test UI Components like Vue, React or Svelte components. They discussed when they 'shallowMount' and 'mount' components, and when they mock or don't mock API requests, stores, or other dependencies. Roman and Mirjam tell stories about performance issues, whereas Vanessa never experiences those problems working on a micro-frontend bases project in the last couple of months. On the contrary, she and her teams needed strict rules about what exactly one component or one unit is.
