Let’s be honest, we do not treat frontend code the same way we treat backend code. And it shows. We talk about applying rules of clean code, about keeping it simple, about writing unit tests. Yet, when it comes to writing frontend code, we skip all those rules that we usually self impose. We convinced […]
This article has first appeared in Today Software Magazine. Why Spock?

How do we specify requirements? Chatting is inherently imprecise. Email looses context. Even the ideal requirement document starts to decay once it is done. The most precise way we know to store knowledge is code. Could we use code to write specifications that are easy to understand by non-technical stakeholders and that check the behavior
(Guest blog post by Markus Gärtner, originally appeared on his blog. Republished with permission.) Four months have nearly past since I started my new job at it-agile GmbH.
