GlasgowPHP: Go 100% Code Coverage Or Go Home

Nothing seems to trigger a sudden outbreak of devs on soapboxes like mentioning 100% code coverage

But why is this still seen as controversial in 2017?

In this talk, Stuart will explain what 100% code coverage is, and what it isn't. We'll look at the tools available, and their current limitations. We'll look in depth at what it tells us, and just as importantly, what it cannot tell us.

But then we'll get into the real debate, the one that triggers that recurring outbreak of soapboxes Stuart will make the case for why he promotes 100% Code Coverage as the minimum, why his own tests often target 10 times that, and what it costs everyone involved whenever developers fall short of that target.

This talk is a blend of technology, business cases and ethics. Stuart's talks are interactive, two-way discussions (just like the one he gave at PHP Warwickshire back in February: www.youtube.com). Bring your own stories and counter-examples, and share them as the discussion unfolds @glasgowphp in July!
