From Events to Insights: Testing and Documenting Event‑Based Software

From Events to Insights: Testing and Documenting Event‑Based Software

In modern architectures, loosely coupled subsystems collaborate via events rather than giving each other direct instructions. This is referred to as event sourcing if the entire state of an application can be reconstructed from these events.

I teach you proven strategies and best practices for testing event-based software. Using PHP and PHPUnit as examples, you will see how tests can be implemented to generate visual documentation of event-based software through their execution.

The first time I present "From Events to Insights: Testing and Documenting Event‑Based Software" will be at the PHP UK Conference on in London.

About me

My name is Sebastian Bergmann and I am the creator of PHPUnit, the industry-standard testing framework that has greatly improved the professionalism of PHP software development.

As founding partner of and consultant with The PHP Consulting Company (thePHP.cc), I assist teams in adopting PHPUnit, optimizing its use, refining development workflows, and writing more testable code.

More events where you can meet me are listed here.

My interactive online training courses are designed to provide you with practical knowledge that you can apply immediately. The next ones starting soon are listed here.
