So happy with @vitest.dev Browser Mode being stable! Migrated legacy Jest component tests that used jsdom, tested implementation details, and mocked web components. Now: reliable user-facing tests with getBy* locators, no mocking, running in a real browser. Tests what users actually see and do 🎉

A bit of a vulnerable post by me but we need your help to get us through what has been a more difficult period than 2020.

It would be really appreciated if you could read and share in your networks too 💛

It’s been a very hard year - Andy Bell
Unlike a lot of places in tech, my company, Set Studio/Piccalilli has no outside funding. Bootstrapped is what the LinkedIn people say, I think. It’s been a hard year this year. A very hard year...

Had a great conversation with @sjoy.lol today. We both toyed around with the web as a hobby starting in the late 90s, before eventually turning it into a career much later on.

We talked a lot about that, but then got into accessibility and I just loved how she referred to it as "a heart thing" 😊
