Snapshot Testing in the Backend
The Test Tribe
by Francisco Iglesias Gómez

The first time I learned about snapshot testing was in the context of front-end testing. It made a lot of sense. Writing an assertion-based test to check if a component was correctly rendered as HTML is tricky. And difficulty grows with the complexity of the output. Snapshot testing seemed a reasonable technique to get the job done, even with some caveats. So, what is Snapshot Testing Anyway? Snapshot testing is a methodology in which we collect the subject-under-test’s output and use it as the criterion for the subsequent test runs. We call this collected output snapshot because it captures ..read more

I often hear testers and quality professionals complain about the feeling that they are trying to prevent problems nobody cares about. The comparison to Cassandra, the seer from Greek mythology who was cursed to see the future and not believed by anybody, is a very popular trope. And I’ve been there; I have felt this frustration. Being the kind of person who doesn’t have a lot of patience for Maudlin, I have considered a different approach for what I see as the most challenging aspect of quality work: getting buy-in for the initiatives we suggest to improve the quality of our application.
