| Long Abstract | With the complexity of frameworks like FLOW3 and applications like TYPO3 Phoenix development will grind to a halt sooner rather than later without sufficient test coverage. This talk will show how we do unit and functional testing of PHP and JavaScript code. And because writing tests without running them does not help, we'll talk about Continuous Integration as well. |

Rens Admiraal
Rens Admiraal is a freelance webdeveloper / developer coach, also working as Senior Software Architect at Beech Applications.
Around the age of 14 Rens started 'developing' by analizing code snippets on ancient computers. By just accepting new challenges Rens learnt multiple languages, and worked on a wide variety of web projects. Now Rens is a FLOW3 / TYPO3 Phoenix Core member and works mostly on the javascript part.
Working at multiple agencies Rens as seen how development can be done in a structured or completely unstructered ways. This slowly moved attention from only development to continues integration, testing and code quality. Now Rens helps integrating development environments enabling / learning developers to work with clean code, and (automatically) giving the developer feedback he needs to improve his skills even more.
Rens lives in Ede (Netherlands) with his wife and 3 sons, plays the bass and likes to release some pressure on a (beach)volleyball field.

Karsten Dambekalns, born in 1977, learnt the basics of web technology the hard way, by looking at other website's HTML source code. After having used OS/2, Windows and Linux he now uses a Mac. All this happened after having learnt BASIC and Assembler on a good old Commodore C128...
Using PHP since 1999 Karsten discovered TYPO3 in 2002 and got caught by it's immense possibilities. Now he is part of the TYPO3 and FLOW3 core development teams and a besides being an active contributor to the community also member of the TYPO3 Association.
