Instant Testing with CasperJS. Create advanced and efficient CasperJS tests for your web development projects

Eric Brehault

Professional web development implies systematic testing. While JavaScript unit tests will validate your JavaScript library’s quality, web functional testing is the only way to guarantee the expected behavior of your web pages. CasperJS is a fast and simple JavaScript testing API that can run on any platform, and it is currently one of the best and easiest ways to write your functional tests.Instant Testing with CasperJS will teach you how to write efficient and accurate tests for your professional web developments. This practical guide explains the various different CasperJS principles through clear and detailed examples, covering a large set of common use cases. This book will progressively cover everything you need to know from CasperJS basic principles to the most advanced testing practices.This book starts off by introducing you to the different testing assertions that you can perform with the CasperJS API. We will then move on to cover why bad timing between event triggering can ruin tests and learn strategies to avoid it. Finally, you will learn how to test efficient and complex web interactions like drag and drop, authentication, and file uploading. With Instant Testing with CasperJS, you will be able to set up an advanced and functional test suite for your web development projects quickly and efficiently.

XGBoost for Regression Predictive Modeling and Time Series Analysis. Learn how to build, evaluate, and deploy predictive models with expert guidance

Partha Pritam Deka, Joyce Weiner, Prof. Roberto V. Zicari

XGBoost offers a powerful solution for regression and time series analysis, enabling you to build accurate and efficient predictive models.
