Fragt Ihr Euch das ebenso? Ist „Vibecoding” nur eine historische Verirrung oder der Anfang vom Ende des klassischen Software Engineerings und der Beginn einer neuen Generation KI-gestützter, aber nicht blindgläubiger Software-Engineering-Methoden?

Uh das ist spannend, ich habe ja bisher Tests mit Selenium für Python geschrieben. Dieses wird aber nicht mehr wirklich weiterentwickelt. Daher erfolgt jetzt ein langsames Umlernen auf Playwright. Noch besser ist, ich habe über 300 Test auf Selenium mit denen ich trainieren kann #SoftwareTesting #Selenium #playwright #python
Software testers do peer conferences (aka unconferences) right! Here are three examples of software tester conference awesomeness.

400 LOC of feature, 2,200 of tests... 😩
Writing #tests is one thing — knowing when and how to debug them is what makes you faster.
Here’s a practical guide for folks using #Playwright with #TypeScript:
https://www.testrigtechnologies.com/how-to-write-run-and-debug-playwright-test-in-typescript/
🎉 We just published a comprehensive step-by-step guide that empowers everyone to execute automated tests.
Our new guide covers:
✅ Setting up Playwright from scratch (no prior knowledge needed)
✅ Running tests in minutes
✅ Understanding test results

Re previous toot, I am reminded of the joke about #SoftwareTesting: a tester walks into a bar and asks for a beer. 57 beers. 0 beers. -3 beers. 0.5 beers. ½ a beer. π beers. ∞ beers. A cat. A çat. A çat (which is different from the previous çat). Everything works. She drinks up and asks where the toilets are. The barman catches fire and the house next door turns into a rather surprised gibbon.

Blogged: The origins of #QualityEngineering lie in the prevention of product failures in Japan.
I had a conversation on @mot Slack about the origins of Quality Engineering. This blog post is the result of my research
💡🤔 Ah, the classic "blame the devs" routine: testing fails in practice because, surprise, developers are not omniscient wizards. Meanwhile, the real culprit—JavaScript errors—guffaws in the corner, sipping on your cookies 🍪 and plotting world domination.

Vitest 4 just came out a few months ago and some dude on the internet already calling its browser mode the next gen frontend testing tool.
How can it be next gen if it is essentially just a Playwright/webdriverio wrapper? 🤦♀️
What is missing in Playwright that makes it necessary to use Vitest Browser mode?

I am glad one of the developers did a demo on what he created today. We already found 2 problems in the code that would otherwise have been detected later on.
TDD stands for Test-Driven Development and is not new: the concept was introduced by Kent Beck at the end of the 1990s https://hackernoon.com/bugs-made-me-believe-in-tdd-heres-how #softwaretesting
