Beyond Acceptance Testing: Domain-Driven Tests (Lab)
by Uberto Barbini

We needed to validate our use cases with tests that:

- specify the user intents, not the technical details
- are human-readable (but without regex tricks)
- verify our hexagonal architecture running both end-to-end and in the domain only
- can guide our architecture like unit-tests are driving our design

This talk is about how we solved these problems with the Domain-Driven Testing approach and how you can apply this technique on your own backend application.

A demonstration with live coding will show how to write them and use it to drive the development.

I will present a library created to make it easier to write them: https://github.com/uberto/pesticide

This talk will teach you a new approach to test your system that can be immediately useful, especially if you are aiming for continuous delivery.
