Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

S1.E34: All about TDD with Thierry de Pauw
Q: If we don't adopt TDD, what are the drawbacks?
Without TDD, software design tends to become complex, coupled, and difficult to change. It leads to a scenario where only end-to-end tests exist, making it harder to implement unit testing later.
S1.E34: All about TDD with Thierry de Pauw
Q: How do you convince a team to start the development with tests?
It often works better when you demonstrate the TDD process with the team, showing them its effectiveness.
S1.E34: All about TDD with Thierry de Pauw
Q: How do you define exploratory testing in your own words?

S1.E33: Enhancing Security Testing with exploratory insights
Q: How can teams tackle numerous identified vulnerabilities effectively?
Focus on risk analysis and prioritize fixing issues based on their likelihood and impact, while managing vulnerabilities to prevent overwhelm.
S1.E33: Enhancing Security Testing with exploratory insights
