Follow-on tasks

Organisation mentors should look to exercise the knowledge we’ve covered in the boot camp. Below are suggestions for tasks that would do this, but please use your own judgement to work out what to do. There is no need for anything to be returned to MD or the presenters—it’s just a learning exercise.

• Perform some exploratory testing on your system and try to break it.
• How many tests does your team have at each level of the pyramid? How long do they take to run?

Mocking

• How does your organisation use mocking?
• What framework?
• How do you do contract testing?
