When dealing with codebases that have little or no automated testing, the very idea can seem daunting. "It will cost too much", "It will take too long", "We don't have the resources". This session will focus on techniques that can address these concerns. The codebase will be C#, although the concepts behind the techniques apply do a wide variety of program languages, frameworks and environments.

You will learn:

  • Practical Guidance to establish an automated testing "Beachhead"
  • Avoidance of Common Pitfalls
  • Maximizing ROI on a limited (or non-existent) budget
