Erin Dees
@undees
Welcome to our new author spotlight! We had the pleasure of chatting with Erin Dees, co-author of several PragProg titles including Effective Testing with RSpec 3. This book helps you solve your testing problems by building and maintaining quality software with RSpec—the popular BDD-flavored Ruby testing framework. This definitive guide from RSpec’s lead developer shows you how to use RSpec to drive more maintainable designs, specify and document expected behavior, and prevent regressions during refactoring.
This is also an AMA. Everyone commenting or asking a question will automatically be entered into our draw to win a copy of Erin’s book!
