Testing scientific web applications with playwrightIn-Person Event

Thursday 30 Jan 2025, 13:00 → 17:00 Europe/Berlin

Room 360 (Building 1.0)

(Disclaimer: The course takes place on demand. If the minimum number of participants (5) is reached, we will set a date together. The course is not online and primarily designed and reserved for UFZ employees.)

 

Research at the UFZ increasingly relies on interactive web applications to facilitate data gathering in the field, validate human input during surveys and make data products accessible. If you are involved in the creation of a scientific web application (e.g. for surveys, monitoring or visualization) testing tools are indispensable. In this workshop you are going to learn how to setup end-to-end-tests (e2e-tests) with the industry standard tool playwright. No previous programming skills required.

Duration: 4h

Agenda

• Testing software products: introduction of use cases and typical approaches

• Finding a testing strategy (interactive + quiz)

• Creating e2e tests with playwright (excercises)

• Discussion

 

 

Requirements

In order to be able to work on the excercises participants are required to install VS Code beforehand. Please contact me via email if you need assistance.
