MoMo Chicago – Feb. 21st – iTest my Code

This month we are brining you a preview of CocoaConf with Eric’s talk on testing iOS applications. We will also be giving a lucky person a FREE CONFERENCE PASS.

Please note the meetup is on Tuesday instead of Monday.

Topic:

Testing your applications is important! Writing good tests is just as important! This talk will be divided into two main parts. The first part will cover exactly what goes into a good test. The second part will cover the basics of two testing frameworks, OCDSpec and Objective C Slim. Objective C Slim is an acceptance testing framework, and for those of you familiar with Ruby and Rails, OCDSpec is a unit testing framework with syntax inspired by Jasmine and RSpec. At the end of this talk, you should have no problem testing all of your future iOS applications.
