Import Events: Automating the Process

Session Category Beginner Track Audience All Attendees

The Events module is a useful tool for Drupal camp event-organizers to schedule featured speakers, customized sessions, and event job listings to the various sponsors. 

What is the best way to begin creating an automated test script for a contributed module? How do you go about making a standardized and enterprise standard test for you to contribute, apply, and share with your own organization? 

There are many steps in the process of making a useful automation test for your contributed module, so you can save time in testing and improve your test driven workflow toward a site feature you consistently work with.  

This session will go over the common practices that are used from: developing a test with targeting the right elements in your script, to refactoring your test script to code-standards, as well as ensuring generic application and test reliance as well. 

Discover how you can improve your existing testing workflow, contribute your own test to the Drupal work space, and use automated testing for your existing modules within your team.
