Strengthening your blocks: A practical guide to UI component testing

As web applications continue to evolve into complex systems, developers today are building more and more user-interfaces with component-based frameworks like React and Vue. As a result, UI unit testing today is easier than it has ever been before, but where do you start? If you feel like unit testing is a guessing game, this talk is for you!

In this talk, I guide you with a practical approach to testing UI components with Jest and Storybook to improve your front-end's quality and solve user needs.

The intended audience is intermediate developers who work on Javascript-based UI components with frameworks like React, Angular, or Vue.

I've given this talk before and here are the artifacts for it, if you're interested: https://github.com/diego-codes/ui-component-testing-talk
