Agenda
- Why test at all? 🤔
- Why write programmatic tests?
- How should we do software testing?
- Aspects of software testing
- Taxonomy & tooling
- DEMO
- Kthxbyeq&a
Spoiler answer to all of the questions from the agenda...
if you are senior 🥸 enough is always...
Why... test
software at all? What's the fuss about?
Start with
Who should do testing?
What... is considered as testing?
OK, how should we do it?

Taxonomy & tooling
- An automated software test
- SUT, test double, fake, stub, mock...
- unit, integration, contract, UI, e2e tests...
- CI, pipeline, idempotency, concurrent exec., ENVs,
test reporting, test artifacts, metrics, coverage... - manual, security, exploratory, functional,
acceptance testing... - XUnit, NUnit, MSTest, dotnet test, Github, Gitlab, AzDevOps, Testcontainers...
the basic parts...
There is no place like prod
demo
more sort of a code-review
The end! 📸 Questions?

Building Modern and Reliable .NET Solutions Through Integration Testing
By Vedran Mandić
Building Modern and Reliable .NET Solutions Through Integration Testing
In this demo-driven session, we’ll explore how to build resilient .NET applications by creating robust integration tests that cover everything from database interactions to external API calls. Using a simple SEO keyword rank tracking app, we’ll focus on practical methods to design tests that simulate real-world scenarios. What You’ll Learn: Core Tools: TestServer, Docker, Moq, TestContainers, and XUnit with concurrency enabled. Test Strategies: Setting up database fake data, intercepting HTTP clients, and testing API integrations. We will talk about the impact of a proactive testing culture on solution reliability and team confidence. Testing isn’t just an add-on; it’s a foundation. By the end, you’ll be ready to start or improve your own integration testing approach, making your .NET solutions more reliable, maintainable, and future-proof.
