Test to Break Principles - Rob Waller - PHP UK Conference 2019

This talk emphasizes the significance of testing in software development, arguing that developers should allocate more time to it to create more robust applications and simplify their workflows. The speaker conducts a live coding demonstration, illustrating the distinction between tests that verify application functionality and those designed to identify breaking points in the application logic. The session highlights how adopting test to break principles encourages developers to implement logic that accommodates unexpected behavior, ultimately leading to more resilient applications. Developers are encouraged to apply these principles across all testing types, including manual tests.
