Overview

The Building High Quality Frontend Javascript Workshop helps teams understand and address the challenges of building high-quality frontend software by providing a foundation in a multitude of quality management methods that can be used throughout the modern Javascript software development lifecycle.

Problems Addressed

 

If you experience any of the following, this workshop is for you:

  • fear of changing code
    • Alice can’t change X because Bob is the only one who knows that area, or worse — ‘owns’ it
    • Alice is afraid to fix Y because it’s unclear what the impact will be
  • long ‘regression test’ times or high effort
  • difficulty adding members to the development team
  • frequently shipping defects that impact more than 1% of customers

Goals

Attendees will leave with:

  • understanding of why team-based delivery and automated testing are important
  • knowledge of quality methods and fit by phase of the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC)
  • ability to:
    • inspect code for problems and share with colleagues
    • write unit tests for new and existing Javascript and Typescript code
  • how to use social processes such as retrospectives and code review to:
    • share knowledge
    • change team culture
