In a world with tight deadliness and accelerating requirements, creating automated tests for our applications becomes more important than ever. An important factor to consider, which most developers overlook, is the fact that testing is a skill, and just because you may be comfortable coding up solutions, it doesn't automatically mean that you can write good unit tests.

- Writing tests that mock out particular functions
- Writing tests that are dependent on Vue.js events
- Using Wallaby.js to see the results of our tests in real time...
