From Annoying to Automated: Running Tests with GitHub Actions

Abstract

Testing is important—we all get that. But let’s be honest, writing tests isn’t exactly everyone’s favorite part of coding. And when you finally do write those tests, there’s the added task of making sure they actually cover your code and run every time you make changes. Sounds like a hassle, right? In just 10 minutes, Veerle shows you how to tackle this with ease! From general code coverage to Shiny app testing with shinytest2, she covers how to automate it all using covr and GitHub Actions. Join her for a fun, bite-sized crash course on testing, test coverage, and making testing a little less annoying!
