TDD in Frontend

Tests first, code last!How to develop your frontend that the code isn't falling apart? How to make it scary free to deliver your work results? How to battle bugs that are chasing you at every step you make?I am going to answer these questions during the workshop and show how to follow TDD at React applications.To showcase the approach I am going to use Cypress, React, MobX, and even Dev Containers. These tools can be replaced by others that are in use in your projects today. Here and now tooling is not so important.In spite of the title the workshop is going to be useful not only for frontend developers. You can benefit from it even working in a different area of development because the key here is a mindset of how to make reliable applications through testing.
