Unit testing is essential to improve code quality and system safety. But it does bring its own challenges ranging from a steep learning curve to solutions that bring vendor lock-in to answering the how, when, and why of coverage metrics reporting. Finding tools and processes that fit into your current development ecosystem is critical to success.
Bill Schiller, senior principal software architect at Smiths Medical, will share his team's evaluation process for finding the right unit testing tool and how to get the most value right from the start. Bill’s real world experience at Smiths Medical brings lessons on adopting a unit testing solution successfully, while delivering safe, high-quality medical devices.
As Bill shares best practices for selecting, adopting, and deploying a unit test automation solution, he'll highlight:
* Strategies to adopt test-driven development (TDD).
* The benefits and ROI found in TDD.
* Leveraging valuable code coverage metrics and reporting.
