ArchUnit For JavaScript - archijs
Archijs
describes itself as "A package to test javascript architecture".
TL;DR - it is not ready for use yet, I would not.

More Readable Tests, Docs, ... [this is a draft]
I used [axios] in a project and while I was reading the docs to learn how multiple interceptors work, I had to dig all the way into the tests and into the source code to finally understand it fully.

ML for VRT - Part 2: Learning Keras
In part 1
I started my naive investigation on how to apply machine learning for making visual regression tests (VRT) better. I described the problem to solve, explored Keras very superficially and did also touched on the complexity of doing ML myself as opposed to having colleagues who are experts and who throw phrases like "train a model" and "predict" etc. around.
Oh boy, did I underestimate this.

ML for VRT - Part 1 (was: Machine Learning vs. Screenshot Comparing?)
I broke this site, and thanks to @Holger reporting the error I figured out I should have done more testing instead of just tweeting that I should :).

Tests using process.cpuUsage and process.memoryUsage
Learning stuff about nodejs (or v8) while writing tests that ensure runtime behaviour, using process.cpuUsage and process.memoryUsage. Curious how brittle those tests become over time. Glad the app ALWAYS runs in the same docker container (dev and prod).

Mocha's Magic done Parameter
Why a #mocha #test times out, when I write it like this: it('...', _ => {}); but it does NOT time out, when I write: it('...', () => {});? Exactly, because the _ is the magic done, that one needs to call.

Discover and Extract Dependencies
While refactoring some badly tested code, a pattern of how I extract dependencies emerged. The actual intention was to improve the testability. In this case dependency injection is the tool that helped me. Read here to find out the steps I found to separate the dependencies.
JS (and) Crafting #1 – Source Maps, V8, Eff Monad, Clean Code, Smoke, Hash Lifetimes
Welcome to the JS (and) Crafting #1 - February 28th, 2017. Every Monday you will receive a hand-selected collection of links about JavaScript and how to craft better software. Let's get started ...

Decoupling from Rails
A very good talk by Jim Weirich, where he shows how to pull the meat, the actual business logic out of a rails app to make it testable in a fast manner concludes with a very interesting idea.
Approval Testing
Emily Bache in her talk "Catch Dancing Ponies — Try Approval Testing" makes me balance my attitude where I try to prevent intergration tests, finding the right amount is the thing to do, I guess. Using this TextTest seems to be one way.
Inheritance, Polymorphism & Testing
From The Clean Code Talks this is a very good one by Misko Hevery where he is talking us out of using IFs, or at least trying to explain what IFs actually mean in code. And how we can better cater for those cases using polymorphism and how this also enables us to test better.
How to be a great software developer
How to be a great software developer is a looong read, but it's worth reading, since it contains lots of truths.

Watch the author of poodr describing how to solve the problem of mocks and real code running out of sync! (And lots of goodies about testing and stuff.) Watch it twice, it's worth it :)
Smallest test runner
IDEs are awesome, but sometimes in my way and setting up test runners sometimes defeats the purpose of being fast with tests, which also means having feedback constantly and continuously.
