18:30 - 19:45 - Exploring the Testing Landscape in F#
-- Exploring the Testing Landscape in F# - Ian Russell --
The existence of features such immutability by default, the elimination of nulls and a rich type system make many of the the tests we write in C# redundant as they are prevented by the language itself. This allows us to concentrate on testing things of real business value. In this session you will learn about the rich variety of testing tools and strategies we have in F# and when to use them.
