Program
12:15 - 13:00 | Mastering Testing Strategies: Designing Effective and Reliable Test Suites | Emmanuel Valverde Ramos & Fernando del Caz
This session dives deep into testing strategies, providing both theoretical insights and practical approaches to design effective, scalable, and reliable test suites. From understanding test levels and types to mastering the use of test doubles and boundary testing, this talk will equip participants with the knowledge and tools to elevate their testing practices and ensure software quality.
14:15 - 15:00 | CI in PHP Projects: Automate Everything with Your Personal Army of Robots | Alexander M. Turek
Imagine a personal army of robots tirelessly working behind the scenes to ensure your PHP projects are bug-free, secure, and production-ready. That’s the power of continuous integration (CI). In this talk, we’ll learn how to build automation-driven pipelines that transform your workflow, so you can focus on writing great code. We’ll cover platform-agnostic strategies for setting up CI pipelines using tools like GitHub Actions and GitLab CI/CD. Learn how to automate essential tasks, including linting, dependency validation, and running tests with code coverage, all within consistent and reproducible Docker-based environments. Whether you’re new to CI or looking to enhance your existing setup, this session will equip you with practical techniques to save time, catch issues early, and maintain high-quality code. By the end, you’ll have the skills to unleash your own “robotic workforce” and let automation do the heavy lifting, leaving you to focus on building innovative applications. Let’s put your PHP projects on autopilot—because robots never sleep.
15:30 - 16:15 | Solving a Testing & Refactoring Kata: Live Coding in Pair/Mob Programming | Jose M. Valera Reales & Jesus Valera Reales
What are code katas? Have you ever wondered what a pair/mob programming session truly looks like? Join us for a live coding session that dives deep into test-first development and refactoring techniques, where you’ll witness collaborative problem-solving firsthand. Together, we’ll tackle a code kata from scratch, navigating the challenges and rewards of building cleaner, more robust code as a team. Get ready for an intense, fully interactive experience in a 100% PHP live-coding session!
16:45 - 17:30 | Essential Design Patterns | Stefan Priebsch
Design patterns are proven solutions to common problems. They help you develop faster, achieve better code quality, and, most importantly, improve communication and collaboration. In this session, we will discuss how patterns provide a common vocabulary for designers to communicate, document, and explore design alternatives. We will look at a selection of design patterns that you can use to build a web application—many of which you may find in your favourite framework. For each pattern, we’ll examine its structure, use cases, benefits, and potential drawbacks, with plenty of code examples. Participants will leave with a solid understanding of essential design patterns and how to use them to create more maintainable and extensible software systems.
