Description

Portals have become the primary way of interacting with the platform for a lot of apps nowadays. If something goes wrong, apps can become completely unusable, so we better make sure that we don't break everything. But how do you even test Portals? This talk will give a high level overview of how Portals work, and goes into the details of what is involved in testing them, and how to make it easy for contributors to write tests for their contributions.
