Modern JavaScript Testing: Integration, Contract Testing & AI Tools - JSJ 692

Modern JavaScript Testing: Integration, Contract Testing & AI Tools - JSJ 692

In this episode of JavaScript Jabber, I sit down with Dan Shapir and our special guest, Yoni Goldberg, to dive deep into the ever-evolving world of JavaScript testing. Yoni, a consultant who’s worked with over 40 organizations to refine developer workflows, shares valuable lessons learned from helping teams design efficient and reliable tests.

We explore emerging trends in testing, including the rise of browser-based test runners, the shift from unit testing toward more integration and component testing, and how modern frameworks like Playwright, Vite Test Browser Mode, and Storybook are changing the way developers think about confidence in their code. We also tackle the role of AI in writing and maintaining tests, the pros and cons of mocking vs. real backends, and why contract testing is becoming essential in 2025.

If you’ve ever struggled with flaky end-to-end tests, wondered how to balance speed with confidence, or wanted a clear breakdown of modern testing tools, this conversation will give you practical insights and fresh perspectives to take back to your projects.

How to Get Hired at a FANG Company - BONUS

How to Get Hired at a FANG Company - BONUS

Chuck explains what he taught Nathan last week when we asked how to get hired at a FANG (Facebook Apple/Amazon Netflix Google) company. Essentially, it boils down to how to build the skills and knowledge needed to pass the interview. How to build the relationships to get into the door and have the interviewer want you to succeed. And how to build the reputation that has the company wanting you regardless of the outcome. This approach also works for speaking at conferences, selling courses, and other outcomes as well as it's the core of building a successful career as an influencer.PanelCharles Max WoodSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/javascript-jabber/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacyBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/javascript-jabber--6102064/support.

Changes in the JAMstack Landscape with Sean C Davis - JSJ 482

Dan kicks the show off by asking our guest Sean C. Davis to define for us what doesn't fall under JAMstack. Sean explains what isn't JAMstack and then dives into what's changed over the last year or so that brings us to the tools and approaches that hybridize the server end of things to bring more server side to the JAMstack.So, JAMstack lifts away from a monolithic backend to provide an independent front-end with a supporting set of back-end tools rather than a back-end with supporting front-end tools. This episodes dives into the implications of this approach as a reaction to the more traditional monolith.PanelAJ O'NealDan ShappirGuestSean C DavisSponsorsDev Influencers AcceleratorRaygun | Click here to get started on your free 14-day trialJavaScript Error and Performance Monitoring | SentryLinksComparing Static Site Generator Build Times | CSS-TricksGrouparoo: Open Source Synchronization  FrameworkUnmute Your Story | UnmutePicksAJ-  Follow Beyond Code | FacebookAJ- Twitter: Beyond Code Bootcamp ( @_beyondcode )AJ- vim-essentials | webinstall.devAJ- StackExchange AJ- Stack Overflow: The Architecture - 2016 EditionAJ- Comparing Static Site Generator Build Times | CSS-TricksAJ- Digital Ocean ($100 or 60 Days Free)Dan- How Wix improved website performance by evolving their infrastructureDan- Who has the fastest F1 website in 2021?

Data Oriented Programming with Yehonathan Sharvit - JSJ 481

Data Oriented Programming with Yehonathan Sharvit - JSJ 481

Yehonathan Sharvit joins the Jabber crew to discuss Data Oriented Programming. Data Oriented Programming is a way to reduce complexity by managing the shape of the data before we send it over the wire. Rather than managing data you send between services in class hierarchies, you focus on the data's meaning and manipulate it so the data it includes updates to your datastore like Redux and then cascade changes from your data.PanelAimee KnightAJ O'NealCharles Max WoodSteve EdwardsGuestYehonathan SharvitSponsorsDev Influencers AcceleratorJavaScript Error and Performance Monitoring | SentryLinksTwitter: Yehonathan Sharvit ( @viebel )PicksAimee- Zsh Tricks to Blow your MindAJ- UREVO Under Desk TreadmillAJ- 3 Filter Water FilterAJ- AJ ONeal | FacebookAJ- Beyond Code Bootcamp - YouTubeAJ- Twitter: Beyond Code Bootcamp ( @_beyondcode )Charles- Adventures in Machine Learning | Devchat.tvCharles- She's in Tech | Devchat.tvCharles- Dev Influencers AcceleratorCharles- DoctorsYehonathan- GitHub | viebel/klipse Special Guest: Yehonathan Sharvit.Sponsored By:Sentry: Resolve JavaScript errors and performance issues with SentrySupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/javascript-jabber/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacyBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/javascript-jabber--6102064/support.
