Testing JavaScript Applications by Lucas da Costa (Coupon for 40% off: podjsjabber19)

Lucas da Costa literally wrote the book on testing JavaScript. He's also maintainer on ChaiJS and Sinon. The podcast follows a three part structure for testing: Entrance tests, integration tests, and structural tests. These form a pyramid of testing that has the entrance tests at the base and the structural and system tests at the top. The episode also covers TDD and approaches to different kinds of JavaScript testing.
