Women in Tech Valencia

We are planning four meetups to learn from the experiences of women in tech. Everyone is invited to participate and share knowledge about back-end, mobile, tech recruitment and leadership.

In the first one, we will be hosting two great talks by two amazing speakers.

Building a simple REST API on Ruby On Rails Carla Urrea - Software Engineer at XING Have you worked with technologies like Spring, Django or Laravel? Maybe you’ve been interested in learning how to build web applications for a while but don’t know where to start? In this session we will learn the basics of how to build a REST API with Ruby On Rails, a framework for building web applications using the Ruby language. It is used by companies like Basecamp, GitHub, Airbnb, and XING. After the session you will have a functional API and access to the code we have implemented.

Testing back using APIs Auxi Carlos - Quality Analyst at Instituto Tecnológico de Informática (ITI) When we have to automate tests, we must prioritise the business, in most cases, the business is behind the applications. To perform these tests, we can find many different tools and methods, but, when that back-end is called from an API, the tests are easier. In this talk I will explain how to test REST services using BDD techniques.
