Good Enough Testing is all about helping developers make better decisions around what to test, how to test it, and when it’s enough.
If you’ve ever struggled with overtesting, undertesting, or just feeling unsure if your tests are enough, this workshop might be for you.
Test Design Techinques learned during the Good Enough Testing workshop
Based on last year's workshop feedback, this is a more pragmatic and action-oriented version. We will focus on practicing test design techniques while keeping a solid understanding of when and how to apply them.
After running five sessions of Good Enough Testing workshops last year, in the first months of this year, I decided to pause for a bit. The reason? I needed time to focus on my health.
It was the right call. Now I am ready to come back with fresh energy and a new format.

Yesterday, with @vcosmin01.bsky.social help, we published the 123rd #ShortRuby newsletter.
It's packed with new #Ruby on #Rails products, inspiring code samples, and insightful discussions on code design and architecture.
Let's discuss testing public methods versus private methods.
Our focus is on verifying requirements.
We aim to answer this question: Does our code correctly implement the requirements from a functional perspective?
I added a couple of new BlackFriday/Cyber Monday deals in the last two days for #Ruby developers.
I invite you to browse them. They are form indie developers, nice tools to use and support fellow Rubyists.

#GoodEnoughTesting #Ruby
Yes, based on the feedback from the first four workshop sessions, I've begun working on a "Good Enough Testing" book. If everything goes as planned,
it should be ready in beta in March 2025. You can purchase it at a discount with any workshop session and receive early access.
If you are unsure when to stop writing tests or how to assess whether your colleague wrote enough of them, this workshop helps identify all possible tests depending on the chosen criteria and offers a simple algorithm to determine the minimum tests needed.
If starting testing feels overwhelming or you rely on inspiration, this workshop provides a systematic approach to start writing tests quickly.
The workshop will teach you how to think about testing and improve test desgin skills.
Who this workshop is for
If you struggle with writing tests or aren't sure if your tests are good enough, the #GoodEnoughWorkshop will guide you in designing test cases that are effective in catch bugs and efficient in verify requirements with minimal effort.
