Just right after the keynote 😉

I am a big fun of Junie I must say ❤️
Much better than Gemini at the moment imho

Thanks to everybody who attended my talk at Droidcon Lisbon!

🔎 Let's @Preview the future: Automating Screenshot Testing in CMP

It was a blast!

You can already find the slides in my SpeakerDeck👇

...or even better, watch me live at Droidcon Berlin in a few weeks! 😉

🇵🇹 Super excited to be talking at Droidcon Lisbon in 2 days again!

I’ll start with a quick screenshot testing intro & then take on the challenge:
⚡️ In ~20 mins of live coding, I’ll spin up automated screenshot tests from Compose Previews: Android, Desktop & Common.

Let’s make it happen 💪

🔥 ComposablePreviewScanner 0.7.0 is out!

It packs 2 new features:
✅ Supports Glance Previews, helping auto-generate screenshot tests from them with any screenshot testing library
✅ Same for Compose Multiplatform Previews in common code

Give it a try👇

Setting up Compose Multiplatform previews Compose Multiplatform now has support for previews in common code. Here's how you can get started with using them.

Did you know you can use Compose previews with Compose Multiplatform now? I wrote a quick blog post about how to get started with them.

Built a Gradle plugin to auto-generate Paparazzi screenshot tests from @Preview composables with ComposablePreviewScanner!

Not published, just a showcase to avoid boilerplate in multi-module setups.
Inspired by Roborazzi, built with Firebender 🔥

This session I was on fire 🔥🔥🔥

Although it took me a while to warm up, once I turned on the camera I did not fail any trick, except the last one, which took me around 5 attempts

1. Team does not meet sprint goals often, but never misses a deadline and has very low bug rate

2. Team meets all sprint goals, but misses deadlines sometimes and has noticeable bug rates.

The main reason why I dislike Scrum A LOT is because it favours working like team 2.

Don‘t be team 2 🙏

Unit testing each class of a system in isolation sounds good in theory: It ensures each piece works on its own. The hard truth is that it’s a practice that normally produces almost no value 🤷‍♂️

But it is even worse: it creates a false sense of safety and swallows lots of time from developers 🧵

Pero pasa el link @xurxodev.com ! Me tienes intrigadísimo 😂😂

I must say I only had problems with WiFi in Deutsche Bahn once and I take trains twice a month.

If we talk about delays… DB is simply unbeatable 😅

Thanks Thomas! See you in IO/Connect & EMEA summit 😉

Thanks Simon! We have to catch up!

Celebrating 10 years married! 🎉
A walk through Olympia Park, a slice of cake, and a reminder that the little moments are the big ones ❤️
