Developers and testers seem to be pulling against each other sometimes.

And yet, both are trying to reach the same goal - great software for their users. Their focus is on different parts of the development process, but there are actually quite a few things they can learn from each other! In my talk I’ll be shedding some light into how developers can apply a testing mindset in order to write better code and vice versa - what can testers learn from developers to enhance their process. I’ll be talking about why it’s important that testers get a basic understanding of the app they are testing, why should developers care about flakiness.

I’ll be discussing reasons why should testers treat their test automation code as developers do their and why should developers focus on users. I’ll take a look at DRY principle and why should testers care about it and talk about why it’s important that developers make their product testable. Finally, I’ll share why it’s important that testers and developes share their knowledge to one another.

At the end of this talk I’m hoping we can build more empathy towards each other and collaborate to deliver A-class software by pulling together
