Google Developers Day US - Python Design Patterns
Python Design Patterns
Alex Martelli
Design Patterns must be studied in the context on the language in which they'll get implemented -- the Gang of Four made that point strongly in their book, though almost everybody else seems not to have noticed. This talk explores some "classic" DPs in all the various categories -- Creational, Structural, and Behavioral -- studying how they show up in Python programs and how they interact with Python's special strengths.
Speaker Bio:Alex Martelli is Uber Tech Lead (Production Systems) at Google. Alex is the author of "Python in a Nutshell", co-editor of the "Python Cookbook", a Member of the Python Software Foundation, and winner of the 2002 Activators' Choice Award and 2006 Frank Willison award for outstanding contributions to the Python community.

Automated Testing Patterns and Smells
Google Tech Talks
March, 6 2008
ABSTRACT
The extensive use of automated testing has been a breakthrough practice in improving the quality of software produced by developers. By now, many companies have experimented with the use of automated functional tests and unit tests. Those that have had good experiences with it rave about it and cannot imagine having been successful without their automated tests. But for every success story there are many (often untold) stories of disappointment. What separates the success stories from these disappointments?
In this presentation Gerard describes a number of common problems encountered when writing and running automated unit and functional tests. He characterizes the problems in the form of "test smells", describes their root causes, and suggests possible solutions expressed in the form of patterns. Although these patterns and smells originated from the developer community's use of xUnit for automated unit testing, many of these smells and patterns are equally applicable to automated functional/acceptance tests using tools such as Watir and some even apply to Recorded Test tools such as Mercury's QuickTest. While many of the practices he describes are directly actionable by developers or testers, many also require action from a supportive manager and/or system architect to be achievable.
Speaker: Gerard Meszaros
Gerard Meszaros is a Calgary-based consultant specializing is agile development processes. Gerard started his career in Ottawa working at Bell Northern Research building telephone switching software. He left Ottawa in 1995 to join ClearStream Consulting where he built his first unit testing framework in 1996 and has been doing automated unit testing ever since. He is an expert in test automation patterns, refactoring of software and tests, and design for testability. Gerard has applied automated unit and acceptance testing on projects ranging from full-on eXtreme Programming to traditional waterfall development and technologies ranging from Java, Smalltalk and Ruby to PLSQL stored procedures and SAP's ABAP. He is the author of the book xUnit Test Patterns -- Refactoring Test Code published by Addison Wesley Professional in the Martin Fowler Signature Series.
