| Kill All Mutants! (Intro to Mutation Testing) | Voxxed Days CERN 2025 | 2025-01-15 |
Mutation testing generates small semantic changes in copies of code and runs the tests to see which mutants are killed vs survived, exposing weak tests and… | ||
| ACRUMEN: What IS Software Quality Anyway?! | Voxxed Days CERN 2025 | 2025-01-15 |
A simple, portable definition of software quality claims software should be Appropriate, Correct, Robust, Usable, Maintainable, Efficient (the N stands for… | ||
| Kill All Mutants! (Intro to Mutation Testing) | Heapcon 2024 | 2024-11-07 |
Mutation testing mutates AST nodes (operator swaps, argument flips, replacing a body with a constant, removing loop control) and runs the test suite to see… | ||
| Tight Genes: Intro to Genetic Algorithms | JNation 2024 | 2024-06-04 |
Genetic algorithms are shown working with concrete numbers: demos use population of 10 candidates, single-point crossover, and a 1-in-4 mutation chance… | ||
| Kill All Mutants! (Intro to Mutation Testing) | XtremePython 2023 | 2023-12-05 |
Mutation testing mutates functions into many mutants and runs the test suite against each one, measuring killed vs survived to surface weak tests or redundant… | ||
| Multi-Talking (not a typo!) with Genaver | GambiConf 2023 | 2023-11-02 |
Genaver is a lightweight tool for quickly generating a customized version of a talk that fits a target conference and time limit. The presentation explains why… | ||
| Tight Genes: Intro to Genetic Algorithms | NDC Oslo 2023 | 2023-05-22 |
Explains genetic algorithms by building a tiny Ruby evolver class that runs: initialize a population (10 candidates in demos), score fitness (truck knapsack… | ||
| Kill All Mutants! (Intro to Mutation Testing) | PyCon US 2023 | 2023-04-19 |
How good is your test suite? Would it all still pass if the tested code was changed? If so, there may be problems with your code, your tests, or… | ||
| "ACRUMEN: What IS Software Quality, Anyway?" | Frontrunners 2023 | 2023-03-10 |
A concise, actionable definition called ACRUMEN claims software must be Appropriate, Correct, Robust, Usable, Maintainable, Efficient and fits on a business… | ||
| Kill All Mutants! (Intro to Mutation Testing) | GambiConf EU 2022 | 2022-09-03 |
Mutation testing mutates copies of functions to check two concrete things: whether tests are strict enough and whether code is meaningful. Tools parse the AST… | ||
| Kill All Mutants! Intro to Mutation Testing | NDC Melbourne 2022 | 2022-06-20 |
Explains mutation testing as creating many single small code changes (mutants) and running the covering tests to see which surviving mutants fool the suite… | ||
| Kill All Mutants! (Intro to Mutation Testing) | ACCU 2022 | 2022-04-06 |
Explains how mutation testing actually works: AST-based tools make thousands of tiny code variations and run only the covering tests, flagging surviving… | ||
| MEAD! | ACCU 2022 | 2022-04-06 |
A simple home mead method: combine 300–400 g honey, 750 mL spring water and about a gram of yeast in a jar, stir until dissolved, cover with cloth and wait —… | ||
| Kill All Mutants! (Intro to Mutation Testing) | NDC Sydney 2020 | 2020-08-31 |
Explains mutation testing by making tiny code variants and running unit tests to see which variants are killed (cause failures) and which survive, with… | ||
| Kill All Mutants! (Introduction to Mutation Testing) | JSConf Hawaiʻi 2020 | 2020-02-05 |
Mutation testing claims to expose weak tests and meaningless code by generating tiny code variants and running the unit suite against each one. The JS tool… | ||
| Kill All Mutants! (Intro to Mutation Testing) | RubyConf 2019 | 2019-11-18 |
Explains mutation testing by showing concrete results not just hype: tools named include mutant and Mutest and older Heckle, a simple example (power method)… | ||
| Kill Evil Mutants! | NDC Oslo 2019 | 2019-06-17 |
Mutation testing makes tiny controlled changes to code, runs the function’s tests against each clone, and flags any surviving evil mutants that keep all tests… | ||
| ACRUMEN: The Six Key Aspects of Software Quality | DevConf 2018 | 2018-09-26 |
