Mocking Techniques in Vitest (remote)
In this 2-days workshop you will finally understand mocking in JavaScript. You are going to look at the mental models behind mocking as a tool, as well as practice various mocking techniques you need in your day-to-day testing life.
What's included
- Boundaries. Learn what mocking actually is, why and when you should use it, and what it does to your tested code.
- Functions. Discover how to use mock functions, spy on existing functions, and mock function behaviors in tests.
- Date and time. Wield the power of space and time to mock date, time, timers, and even event loop ticks.
- Network. Gain full control over the network in your tests using Mock Service Worker. Learn how to intercept any request you want, and mock its response, including error responses, network errors, and response timings.
Prerequisites
You don't have to have any prior experience with automated testing to complete this workshop. Having a basic experience with JavaScript, however, is required as we won't be covering things like objects, functions, imports/exports as a part of this workshop. Having a prior experience with testing frameworks is preferred.

Grounding AI Applications with React, JavaScript, Langchain and Elasticsearch (in-person workshop pass)
Everywhere we look we see examples of leveraging AI technologies not just while building software, but in our web applications too. While developers want to embrace new shiny technologies, tech leaders raise concerns about the risk of exposing their data for training, alongside other accuracy issues such as source hallucination.
Using vector search alongside LLMs can ground applications to a known source, and allow the generation of domain-specific responses. In this talk, I'll show how to combine Elasticsearch and Langchain in serverless applications to build a grounded RAG application and show results in a simple React UI.
Schedule & location
December 12. Venue in Berlin (tbc).
